Won't be as bad as you are thinking it will be

Play around with the sticks and remember on Intel chips, 2k CL10 > 1600 Cl9

So the performance won't drop at all or what do you mean?

performance hit will be minimal goin from tri to dual. Just read the motherboard manual how to configure your board properly for dual channel

The actual core performance won't drop at all. Where you will notice a MINIMAL difference is in multithreaded apps where memory bandwith is intensive IE encoding, and that will even be like seconds difference not like minutes.
