Is VS1GBKit400 one-sided or two-sided?

You cannot go by that alone 8 X 64M can mean 512 Meg or it can just be the organization. Can you provide a link to where you are getting this.

http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=80098-21 The "8 x 64 =512" was my extrapolation from seeing " 64 x 64". If you tell me it's two-sided and I have 4 memory slots, will 2 strips occupy all available memory? In other words, does the MB(A8V Deluxe) read a double-sided strip as 2 independent strips?

2x 512MB, DDR400, 64Mx64, Non-ECC, 184 DIMM, unbuffered, CAS2.5, 32Mx8 DRAMs

32M X 8 is the IC used and

64 X 64 is the organzation.

So yes they would have 16 32M X 8 IC's and would be double sided.

And you would be limited to DDR333 with more than 2 modules in that MB. Sorry!

Three more and I will disappear-- at least for a while: 1) What does "the organization" mean? 2) Using 2 modules, would I still get the DDR400 doubling effect to FSB800? and 3) Which MBs would not limit me to DDR333 with all 4 slots filled with double-sided 512s or 1GBs? Again, thanks for your help!

You can get more information at http://www.rojakpot.com about memory and bios, but it would take good bit of information to try and explain this all to you if you do not have a basic understanding. All you should be concerned with would be what the MB maker suggests and if the modules in question would be compatible.

 

And yes 2 modules double or single sided will run at DDR400, according to the AMD 64 white papers more than three ranks per channel will force the memory controller to step down to DDR333.
