Like the title says, I would like to know, whether a i7 processor on 32bit Windows XP is able to utilize triple channel memory access with the memory configuration of 3x2GB?
I'm asking cause 32bit Windows can use only address up to <4GB of memory (so only 2 sticks of 2GB memory, not 3 needed for triple channel!) - or are they able to spread the use to something like ~1.33GB of memory from each stick and still get triple channel performance?
