ddr3 memory configuration....

[Stephen Adler]

Guys,

I'm in the process of upgrading to a 5500 class motherboard with DDR3 
memory and have discovered that one can impact the performance of the 
system depending on how one populates the memory on the motherboard. A 
quick check on the net shows that its a bit confusing. Can anyone 
recommend an easy rule of thumb on how to populate a motherboard? It 
looks like its best to buy DDR3 DIMMs in factors of 3.

Cheers. Steve.
