AN8 Dual channel - help!

[LARD]

Hi, I used to have an abit NF7 v2.0, which let you run dual channel with my 3 PC3200 modules, one 512MB and two 256MB modules. There were 3 slots, and it worked with the two 256MB modules one one side and the one 512MB on the other.

The AN8 SLI I have now won't let me do the same thing with my three modules, and the AN8 SLI also has 4 slots.

Does anyone know the best way if it's possible to get my dual channel working? Thanks

You have to have two identicle-sized sticks-- in the right order (depends on mobo)

Any other combination (aside from 4x same size) results in 333mhz speed-- 3 sticks= downgraded speed.

Go spend the $85 for a pair of decent 512 modules--
