The same trend continues here, with the 7VAXP-A Ultra falling consistently behind the A7N8X Deluxe in dual channel mode. The 7VAXP-A Ultra is competitive with the A7N8X Deluxe in single channel mode, but less so compared to the first half of our workstation results.

If you own an nForce2 motherboard and run workstation apps you most definitely do not want to run in single channel mode. We recommend two identical memory modules for the fastest and most reliable performance in dual channel mode.
