(I have 3 banks total each with 2 slots)

Bank 1 Bank2 Bank3
| | | | | |
1B 1A 2B 2A 3B 3A

Ok i want to run dual channel - right now i have 2 512 Dimms in slot 1B and 1A on bank 1 So i have 1 gig total ram.

So questions -
#1 Am i running in dual channel mode the way i have set up now?

I Just bought 2 1gig Dimms to go along with my 2 512 dimms to total 3 gigs in my system.

#2 Now would i just drop in those 2 1 gig dimms in bank 2 - 2B and 2A? Is that the correct way to run in dual channel mode?

*BTW all the dimms are the same speed and make they are just differant sizes.


Thanks for your help!!
