Given a pile of same capacity modules of the same DDR/DDR2/DDR3 type, what have you guys found as the chance of getting two randomly selected modules that will just work in dual channel mode?
Assume both modules are of the same size and speed (DDR333, DDR2700, etc. since it usually says on the label), but don't assume they have the same suggested CAS/RAS timing or manufacturer or especially rank layout...
I have an unmatched 1GB DDR (kingston?) and a 2GB DDR2 (patriot?) module, wondering what's the chances of getting a module that I can dual channel these with. Not high, I suspect, best to have identical brands and chips on the modules? Is it possible to get two to work without them being visibly identical?
