I have two 512mb PC3200 RAM sticks in my P4 3.0GHz S478. Should those 2 sticks be configured in Dual Channel or just Single Channel?

if anyone enjoys dual channel, it's Intel based systems, since AMD has the controler on chip, thus dual channel offers little to no benefit.
Anyway, if you do have a system that supports dual channel, and matching RAM sticks, then I don't see why not using it...

They are both identical sticks and are configured to DC. I heard that having RAM configured to DC might create a little more RAM instability.
