This will probably sound stupid.. may well be. But i'm really confused.
When we say quad-channel RAM, what exactly do we mean by it?
I will cut the long story (and the how i got me so confused) short and just relate the relevant part, it being that at some point i started seeing all these posts, youtube vids, etc wherein dual/quad channel was being equated with the number of sticks in a given set.
1) Except we've had matched four-sets way before we've had "quad channel" mobos
2) Except sets such as this one (http://www.gskill.com/en/product/f4-3333c16q-32gvk) are mentioned as 'Dual Channel' by the manufacturer, despite coming in four sticks
Help me, lol
