Am I better off investing in 6GB (3x2GB) ram for a triple channel MB?

[izaven715]

I've bought this MB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188049

Is it better for me to spend an extra $50 to get a 6GB (3x2GB) set of RAM instead of a 4GB (2x2GB)?

Yes... you should be using tri-channel to fully utilize your i7. Check out this kit on newegg... it's a GREAT PRICE!
