check this quote from a Gigabyte Qualified memory Vedor list: "Note: Due to AMD AM2+ CPU limitation, DD2 1066 is only supported by 1 dimm per channel."
holy crap, is this true? I just ordered a system (Phenom II 920) amd 780chipset, w/ 2 1gb sticks of 1066 memory... and I just now wanted to order 2 more 1gb sticks to give me 4gb, so I could better utilize 64bit Vista.
BUT... will I be limited to 800Mhz because I'm using 4 dimms??!?! If so, I will return all 4 sticks and just get 2 2gb sticks... what a pain in the ass!!!
so, question is: is Gigabyte's warning true?
