Is there a way to determine dual channel capable memory?

I have two sticks of PC4000 Hardcore by kingmax. I am almost positive they will work in dual channel since the dual channel kits all have very similar specs but before I run a dual channel motherboard...I would like to know. Short of getting a motherboard etc. how could I know if they would work?

thanks

Dual channel isn't determined in the DIMMS. Its determined in the MOBO. If you get a Dual Channel MOBO you can run Dual Channel on any DDR1 DIMMS (what all boards (except Intel) use right now)

yipper perdy shure :D If the memory you got can't handle dual channel (aint no way that would happen) then just send the new MOBO back. But as I said, Im perdy shure.
