Ram - 1.5 asymetric or 1.0 interleaved?

[CCT]

Which is the 'better' choice. I cannot get the 4th module to seat on my Asus P5GD1 so I can either use 3 modules asymetric or 2 interleaved.

thanks

Dual channel will give you better memory performance than asymmetric. If you can install the ammount of memory you want to use in just two slots, I'd do that. Still if you can't insert a module in the 4th slot, I'd say you might want to contact Asus or your dealer about a replacement board.

Thanks for the answer - I finally got it in there but thought I was gonna crack the mobo - extrememly hard socket for some reason.
