I heard someone that if you wish to use DDR ram, you HAVE to use it in pairs. so say i wanted 256 ram, you need two sticks of 128 if it is DDR? Is this true?

You will need two DDR DIMMs if you purchase a motherboard based on the Granite Bay E7502 chipset. No other current DDR chipset has this requirement.

Cool! Another old guy that remembers 30 pin SIMMs. Do you remember SIPPs too?? Where you actually had to line up a row of pins and carefully push them into sockets on the motherboard? Oh, and the IBM Blue Lighting 486 board! I wanted one of these so bad but settled for a Shuttle Spacewalker something with a Intel DX-2 66. 16 MB RAM, 340MB Hard Drive and Windows 3.11! I even had a 28.8 modem in this setup!
