Slots - how to arrange memory?

Comment:

I have 2 sticks of 512 ddr 3200 GEIL ram at same cas/timings on the sticker. and 1 stick of 1024 ddr 3200 GEIL ram with different cas/timing on the sticker. I'm planning to put the 512 in slot 1 and 2 and run dual channel and the 1024 in slot 3 and just well hope for the best! Will this work or do I need another stick of 1024 or 2 more sticks of 512 with same cas/timings as other 512's? If I go and do as i said should what SPD settings will BIOS detect that of the slowest or fastest memory? Hope the above makes sense :) Thanks

Apparently you need to read up on dual channel configuration. You need either two or four modules for that to work.

DUAL = 2, either 2 sticks or 2 pairs
