Quote from my A7N8X DX user's manual:
NOTE: To enhance system performance, utilize dual-channel feature when installing additional DIMMs. You may install the DIMMs in the following sequence: Sockets 1 and 3, sockets 2 and 3 or sockets 1, 2 and 3.
Hmmm, doesn't say anything about losing dual-channel with a 3rd DIMM....
My Albatron KM18G Pro manual states:
To enable dual-channel DDR functionality, your system must meet certain configuration conditions. First, you can only use 2 of the 3 DIMM slots...
And my Chaintech 7NIF2 Summit manual notes:
For maximized Dual-Channel (128 bit) result, you must install one of your two memory modules on DDR3
Appears that on certain nForce2 mobos (which all of these are) Dual-Channel only works with 2 sticks. The original post wasn't very specific regarding the mobo in question.
