Hey guys i recently just got this asus p6t motherboard and it has 6 ram slots... 3 orange and 3 black and i have the ocz gold 6gb ddr3 triple channel ram. It has an orange trip on the bottom of the ram case that says triple channel. So im wondering can i put the ram in any ram slot on the motherboard or only the orange slots??? if not what are the black slots for??

It's to distinguish between channels. Put them in all orange or all black slots.
 
The other 3 slots.

Keep it to 3 or 6 slots.

You don't need more RAM.

so if i get extra ram i NEED to fill the rest of the black ones? and what are the DIFFERENCES witht the orange and black slots? is the black slots triple channel?!
