Has anybody used a CUSL2 with all 3 banks filled with PC133 memory?

Has anyone had any luck filling all 3 banks of the CUSL2 with PC133 memory and getting them to run at 133Mhz? I ordered a CUSL2 and 3 128MB Mushkin PC133 Chips (CAS2) and I'm afraid they won't work, considering what I've read recently at Tom's Hardware. It really bothers me that they put 3 slots on there but you can only use 2 of them at PC133, and they don't even mention it in the manual!!! Anyway, if anyone has had any luck, let me know how you did it.

From what I've heard, the i815 cannot run stable with 6 memory banks used. It depends if the memory is double sided, or single sided. I think your getting the number of DIMM slots confused with the number of banks. Each DIMM slot has two banks.
 
Heard of the same probs.

Have 128 stick + 64 stick = 192MB

3 banks, 2 slots. PC100 @ 100.

No probs.
 
I use my CUSL2 with all three dimm slots filled with 3 single sided 64 meg PC133 dimms and it works fine. But the above posts are right, its more important to note the number of banks used than the number of slots. I only use 3 banks even though I use all 3 slots.
