Abt speed of DDR RAM........

[sushantasarkar]

If i use two 256 mb ddr ram module at 400mhz each then will the overall speed of ram become 800mhz?

[rahul_becks23]

r u crazy.........it will remain 400 MHz.

using two DDR-400 modules may help you getting the double data bandwidth,if your motherboard supports Dual Channel Mode. But it will never double the RAM's frequency!

Well if u r using them in single channel they will remain.....400MHz..
If u put them in dual channel..then... theortically the speed is doubled but....practically it is much much less...

[rahul_becks23]

sam is right.

i really LOL'ed on this ... well the answer is NO !! ... just almost double the mem. bandwidth ..

r u sure??coz then 2x 400MHz modules will run at 800MHz..and 2x667 MHz modules will run at 1334MHz.....

ohhhh... jus 3 MHz away from 1337

r u nutz lol i wont help , speed will remain 400Mhz

Guys there's no point in burning the fingers. If it were so then why would people go for 800 MHz DDR II 1 GB RAM. Won't they buy 2 400 MHz 512 MB(each) RAMs.
lol if it were so then there would have been no existence of DDR II RAMs.
