Putting max memory in all slots on many mobos results in instability.
Also, many people put in 3Gb, then find the PC sees it as around 2.5Gb., especially on old mobos.
If I was going to spend good money on lots of RAM, I would reconsider my options. Perhaps mew mobo with 2Gb of much faster RAM?
You should future-proof your PC like that, otherwise its only a matter of time until your mobo dies, then you will wish you had taken the upgrade route!
Good Luck!
