  • I checked and the Dell8910 has one 16gb RAM card installed and another 3 slots up to a maximum of 64gb, so should be ok for that.

    RAM running in single channel mode? [sucks teeth and shakes head]

    In truth it may well be one of those things that you need to benchmark in order to tell the difference. Wouldn't be surprised if things like photo/video editing and 3d stuff were the sort of applications which benefit from dual channel operation tho'.

    Does seem a strange way to spec a new machine. Makes me wonder if it's simply because 1x16GB module is a bit cheaper than 2x8.
