Actually, isn't it the fact that it's DDR (double data rate) RAM that dictates that the RAM would be 799x2=1600Mhz?

Dual channel can provide additional bandwidth, but speed increases here are very hard to prove in the real world. Far closer to 5% than 100%.

Hey Parks,

That's correct. I was just being general, but I clarified it better to be more specific for what you mentioned. :)
