Can 3x1GB module runs at Dual-Channel on 965P chipset?

Look here : http://download.intel.com/design/chipsets/applnots/31320702.pdf
According to White paper, it can do Assymetric Dual Channel with 3 modules of the same size. but performance is unknown!

I saw interesting thing in intel website :
Intel® Flex Memory Technology
Gives users a more flexible memory upgrade option by allowing different memory sizes to be installed while maintaining dual-channel mode/performance.

if it be correct I will buy another 1GB module and upgrade my memory from 2x1GB to 3x1GB because according Anand Vista runs smoothly on 3GB memory or higher

1.5 the performance of single channel instead of double, but it's better nonetheless.

My Dell Inspiron 6000 "claimed" in BIOS to be running in dual channel mode with a 256MB and 512MB DDR2 SoDIMMs installed. *shrug*

Apparently the 915PM.

Flex Memory Technology is available it seems for a wide variety of chipsets (910/915/965/975 at least).
