    Default Memory Question

    With my tax refund I'm purchasing a new pc.
    First one in 10 years! Windows 98 anyone?
    I was wondering which would get better performance.
    On a Dual Core processor is it preferrable to have two 1 GB slots of ram or a single 2 GB slot?
    I'm leaning towards a single 2 GB since I could upgrade to 4 GB for less in the future.

    single 2 GB.

    But if you're going to be running Vista with a dual core processor, I'd advise you to go with at least 3 GB memory if possible.

    - Thanks to Roddoliver for the sig!!

    Obviously, the one you can upgrade is the better choice. And you probably will want to upgrade with some of the video/graphics stuff going around now.
    I miss the old Mile High Stadium.

    Thanks. I was just wondering because I thought each core was better off utilizing a slot each.
    I can't remember why.
    I'll probably be running XP for now.
