Is there is a way to make a programm use some sticks of RAM over the others (prioritize)?

I have a mixed RAM, 1x1 GB of Samsung, 2x2 GB Hynix in Dual Channel and 1x8 GB Kingston, all are DD3-1333. I want to make RAM speed sensitive stuff run on dual channel RAM before using all others, while RAM ammount sensitive would ignore dual channel until there is no free memory in the allowed region left.
 
[strike]Sorry, but you don't have 2x2 GB Hynix in Dual Channel and the other on single channel. It's either all dual or single and a mixed setup like yours will always be single channel.[/strike] - Obviously wrong for newer Intel board, that can operate in mixed mode -

Why not take the 1x1 out,what does it really add anyway,put the 2x2gb in one channel and the 1x8gb in the other channel.With this you'd probably end up with 2x4gb in dualchannel and 1x4gb in single channel (rest of the 1x8gb stick).
 

And there sure is a memory controller that supports that config? Beside dual XEON systems of cause.
