Forgive my ignorance, but from reading other post, it seems that you need two identical sized sticks of RAM to unlock the awesome power which is dual channel. On the other hand, there is the saying, size matters, which would seem to favor the 3GB option but AFAIK, exclude the dual channel of the memory (and go to single channel?)
The computer is an Intel based iMac, and I have 2X 512 in there right now.
Which is better? My uses are primarily encoding videos, having lots of apps open, and using the CS3 suite (Photoshop and Illustrator mostly) when it comes out in a month or so.
Ive tried to do my homework on this, but I cannot find the answer.
