Slot Fill Factor
The motherboard I am getting (ASUS P5WD2) has four slots for memory, total of 8 Gig. I'm going to put 2 Gig in (need it for large video editing files) Am I better off to get 4 512s and fill all slots so if one goes bad I can replace at cheaper price or am I better off to go with two 1 Gig sticks? Will that board run on only 1 stick or does it need to be in pairs? If the memory needs to be installed in pairs, then I think it would be better to have 4 sticks so you can troubleshoot memory.
What do you think?
And what about memory brands? Is Altas Good? If not what is do you recommend?

If you have enough workstations then can you fill all 4 slots with memory 'borrowed' from the other workstations? Even if it is not 4 x 4, 4 x 2 or even 2 x2 & 2 x1 to try and prove the whether 4 slots work meaning you are not using this Crucial memory in the test? Maybe HP made a mistake with the BIOS or Board and not you. I use Piriform Speccy. Ram question fill all 4 slots or 2 which is better. I have a mother board that has 4 slots for memory.
