Generally the rule is to put the largest memory module in the first slot and the smaller modules in the remaining slots.

Depending on your motherboard and chipset, putting the 1GB modulein the first slot ofchannel A and the 2, 512MB modules in both slots of channel Bmay allow you to run in dual channel mode.
