TWINX matched module pairs are kits of two XMS low latency modules which have been specially tested together in a dual channel test environment.

Twi: I've not hear of this in relation to RAM.

Sig (Sauer): They make firearms. Again I've not come across it in relation to RAM.

I would have thought 2GB was ample for XP. If you put 4GB in only 3GB will be used. I doubt if you would see any improvement. My advice would be to save your money.

If you put 4GB in only £GB will be used.

I agree. A 32-bit OS can't use more than 3-3.5 GB. If you don't have a 64-bit OS 4 GB is a waste of £ (or $). :wink:
