it's not a problem...it is designed as such...that's actually my argument why thet have 1&3 same color coded when both cannot be used to run dual-channel...maybe future bios update will address this issue...

Hehe my SLI-DR is sitting alone on the desk now. His 3500+ companion is on it's way from Brisbane as we speak and so is the Twinmos UTT from chinsc. Don't think i'll be able to put this rig together anytime soon as I need to dismantle my water cooled rig and remove the PSU for the SLI-DR  |
