I just installed my 2nd stick of Kingston HyperX PC3200 512mb so that i could run dual channel memory. The sticks of ram are EXACTLY the same model. My question is, when i ran Sisoft Sandra test on my ram, it told me that the ram Bandwidth Efficiency is only 64%. It also says that the bandwidth is 4162 mb/s. Why would this be??? I am running 800mhz FSB on a P4p800 so i dont think there are any bottle necks.

Curent Rig:
Asus P4P800 Deluxe
P4 3.0C Northwood 800mhz FSB
2x512 Dual Channel PC3200 Kingston HyperX
Asus Geforce4 Ti4200

sounds like you're running your RAM at 133mhz instead of 200mhz. make sure the ratio is set to 1:1

Asus A7N8X-X
1800+ @8x210mhz

Also verify Via the manual which combination of memory slots you need to use to enable dual channel.

I already have the ram in the right slots for dual channel, i triple checked that. And my ram is running at a little over 200mhz....so both of those possiblities are eliminated.
