I am putting together a small AMD E-350/Fusion-based "server", and have a few questions related to memory.
1. Would one 4GB DDR3 DIMM consume less power than 2x 2GB DIMMs?
2. Would a CL9 RAM consume less power than CL8/CL7?
3. Would there be a substantial difference in power consumption between a "1.5V" DDR3 memory and a "1.65V" memory? (It looks like there are more 1.65V options)
4. With a goal of lower power and 24/7 operation long-term reliability, any recommendations (even at the expense of performance)?
The server is not mission-critical, or needs performance. I just want to be able to turn it on, have it run 24/7 (hence, low-power components), and not have to deal with hardware issues.
Thanks!
