Which motherboard are you using? In a dual/triple channel memory system, always buy memory in MATCHED sets of 2/3 for best results and less problems. Timing, voltage, date of manufacture, brand, etc is very important to assure trouble free use with dual/triple channel.

I'd simply go with a 2x4GB set for the full eight, or get a 3x2GB for 6 and hope you can get 2 or 3 of your 1GB sticks to play w/ the 3x2GB....with four sticks already and your CPU being a 1366, should have 6 slots total...the 2x4GB will give you 8 in dual channel...Would suggest 1066 max with your Xeon as far as freq

Sorry , and thank you

Right now, in the memory tab, you are showing that you are at 533 which is true freq, this is DDR (Double Data rate) so you are currently running 1066 now
