Quad channel? Does that work in any mobo that has 4 slots and supports dual channel ram?

Oh, if only I had the money. To truly get your money's worth out of it, you'll need to run a 64 bit OS, though.

I think this is a better value and better modules.

2x2GB should be a better option though,
there are some GSkill on sale for the same price:

No such thing as quad channel, just another way of saying "2 dual channel kits".

From what I have seen it is best to use 2 modules rather than 4 in most MB's and with Corsair they will only warranty the speed of how they are sold IE one set of Twin2x or one set of Quad2x sets.

ok, looks like that was mislabled. originally (at least on my computer) that was a link to a memory kit that said "4x4gb" aka 16gb of ram. looks like they mislabled it though :lol: :rolleyes:
