I'm looking for people's opinions backed up by experience and techinal knowledge on the issue.
I'm wondering if better performance can be achieved with one stick of 512 MB of RAM, or with two sticks of 256 MBs of the same brand and model. To be more specific I am referring to the Corsair CMX512-3200C2PT vs two Corsair CMX256A-3200C2PT.
The board which this will all be happening on is the Epox 8RDA3+.
Another question I have is about the Dual Channel DDR. Model: CMX512-3200LLPT and CMX256-3200LLPT.
If you don't think this is Highly Technical pls don't flame me. This is the only forum I saw fit for this question. I'm looking for some help before I purchase the RAM for my new system. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

By performance I mean general real world speed as well as the ability to overclock.- Is it easier to overclock one stick of 512 or two sticks of 256?
- Will I be able to achieve higher overclock speeds with the stick of 512 or two sticks of 256 of the RAM afore mentioned?

- Anyone have any experience with DDR II, and what were the results?
- Are the results better with DDR or DDR II?
- Is it easier to overclock DDR or DDR II?
