DO MATCHING MEMORY PAIRS MAKE IT GO FASTER? We tested
the MacBook Pro with both matching pairs of 1GB SDRAM and
non-matching pairs (one 1GB and one 256MB module). None of the GPU
test results were affected but the matching pairs did provide a
small gain in CPU intensive tests (2.5% in iMovie, 3.5% in
Photoshop CS).
