Would there be any issues if I were to run 3 sticks of memory instead of 2 or 4 in my mobo? I would keep everything the same size & brand. I wish to run 3x1GB...I have P35 mobo's.

I think the days of hyperthreding are gone right?

It will work, but not in dual channel. You can install 4x1gb sticks, and it will be dual channel. But why? I suggest you just get XP x64.
