As for the installation, putting two per bank and going for dual-channel mode would definitely work. But I believe that the memory controller also supports a "Flex Mode" where you fill one bank with two sticks, and the other banks with one stick. This should give you tri-channel for 12 GB and single channel for 4 GB, which depending on your usage may be faster.

Crucial blocked my transaction, something wierd about paying with a Canadian address and shipping to my PO box in Montana.
I've never heard of this in the 4 years I've had the box. Amazon certainly doesn't mind taking my money. So I'm back to square zero with this upgrade.
Does anyone have any old RAM laying around I could test?
I've done a bit more reading on the web and chatting with my guildies and now I believe that an SSD would result in better performance for WOW? Thoughts on that?
