Hi,
The Wiki on dual channel memory says:
"The memory modules are installed into matching banks, which are
usually color coded on the motherboard. These separate channels allow
each memory module access to the memory controller, increasing
throughput bandwidth."
Does that mean that placing 2 1GB modules, each into a different
colored slot, is faster than putting 1 2GB module into one slot and
leaving the other 3 slots empty?

No, it means that 2 one-gig modules in same-coloured slots will
theoretically work better. I have one module in a dual-channel mobo and
it works ok. Most desktop/workstation mobos do.
