I knew that part but i was hoping to get the result the other fella had since he said on his boards the color codes didn't apply
I just wanted to know if you had the jedi powers going to see if it was going to work or not but i did since then switch it back
I've never tried single chanel. But, I have heard it said the single gives better results IF you are doing 1 single thing at a time. If you multi task as in having multiple apps open at the same time, you will get worse performance. I'm not saying that is true, but I have been told that and it sounds reasonable.
Not a lot of support for your Motherboard, but found this for your model. The key is:
A = 2 modules
B = 4 modules
C = 1 module
You want to try the 2x 4Gig in the proper slots alone 1st. Then try all 4 in the proper slots. If no huge drop off, you'll want to keep the extra ram installed.

Hard to find info on your motherboard.
Be sure to put the RAM cards in the correct slots, as A Guy mentioned.
The 2x4GB in Dimm slots 1 & 3, run the test.
Then add the 2x2GB in slots 2 & 4, run the test again, compare results.
Even with two sets of Corsair RAM with the same timing specs, may not be compatible or able to run together. Could be due to chip size or how your motherboard and integrated controller is setup.
Some motherboard/integrated controller handle different kinds of RAM better than others.
Look in your motherboard manual under Memory and see what it says about mixing RAM. Due to the above problem most motherboard manuals say not to mix RAM and only use identical size and configuration. Some controllers won't accept RAM cards with small sized chips.
Let us know how the tests go.
