    Default Upgrading Computer RAM....

    ok, so right now i have 2 sticks of 512mb...(bear with me, i am going to explain this as simple as i can)...i have 4 slots for ram, right now 2 are taken up. the slots sit like this: Slots 1 and 2 are right next to each other, then about an inch away, slots 3 and 4 are right next to each other. as of right now, the 2 sticks of 512 are in slots 1, and 3. what would happen if i move the one in slot 3, to slot 2, so that now both sticks of 512 are directly next to each other (is this what dual channel is?????). the computer has to be good for gaming, is there any characteristics that make ram good for gaming? also what ram would you recomend, i want 2 more sticks of 512mb. Right now I am looking at these...any HELP at all is greatly appreciated. thanks
