Which slots(1-2-3) should these go in on a NF7-S-v2
I have 2 sticks of 256mb pc3200 and 1 stick of 512mb pc3200.

Thanks

The MB manual says all three slot are good for either of them, however it also says to install modules from 3 to 1 in that order.

If it were Me I would put the 512 in slot 3

Hope this helps.

Put the 512MB in slot 3, and the two 256MB in slots 1 & 2. That way, 1 & 2 work together to make up 512MB and will work in a balanced DC configuration with the 512MB stick in slot #3

EDIT: BTW, the manual says that with three sticks only 166mhz is "supported". I tried and had no problem @ 200mhz. Many others use three sticks and report no problems @ 200 or higher.
