So I'm at the point of upgrading again. I'm thinking of getting the following:
P4 2.4C
Asus P4C 800-E Deluxe.
Where I'm somewhat stuck is the ram. I am going to order from NCIX here is Canada, so my options are mainly between Corsair, Kingston, and Mushkin. I'm not sure if I can go for a full gig at once, so should I get one 512 stick now and wait till I get the second one, or should I get two 256 sticks now and go dual channel? Is there that much of a difference?
Everything else will come from my current system as in sig. Thanks for any help you can throw my way.
