Look in the motherboard manual for info regarding type of memory and
configuration in the slots.
According to the manual, the CAS latency should be the same for all sticks.
Also, the two banks should hold equal memory amounts, so should be 2 + 1 ..

You may also benefit from a BIOS upgrade assuming that there is a later BIOS
update available..
