    like i said. does ex. studio xps 16" support asynchronous dual channel ????
    (with other words, will 1GB + 2GB runs in "dual channel" (asynchronous dual channel ))


    fact.
    most newer chipsets support asynchronous dual channel and are similar to "ordinary"(synchronous) dual channel.
    it doesn’t deliver the full performance that can be achieved in (synchronous)dual channel mode, it’s still faster than single channel though.

    All current mainstream Dell laptops (except maybe their netbooks) will support asynchronous dual-channel memory, including the SXPS 16. This has been the case for a long time now, right back to the 915 chipset era...
