Confused about this 9GB upgrade option...

[Patrick G]

Can anyone explain to me why the 9GB upgrade option here on this desktop PC does not indicate Dual-Channel or Tri-Channel?

Who cares about the 9 gigs, why not just go for 24 gigs? Ram is cheap.

What website is that?

Dell.com

9GB... 6 modules? Dell is selling 1.5GB ram modules? What the hell... I'd pass


May those RAM choices look shitty.

It's 3x2gb + 3x1gb modules most likely.

Would you say it is Tri-Channel RAM and they just forgot to list it as such?

That's a Dell question.

Sounds like a question for Dell. There's this nifty chat thing on their site... try it out. I mean, we can speculate all we want, but we won't know unless someone from Dell confirms our speculations. If chat peeps don't help, give 'em a call. Just act like you're about to order 50+ machines or something, so its very important, lol.
