Confused about dual channel

[McManicMan]

Hi i just brought some of this

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-108-CS

to go in this

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-086-GI&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=913

and in bootup and in cpu-z under the memory tab its saying "single" channel and not dual?

why is this, currenty in 1+2 the 3rd is for ddr3, then there is 4+5 then the 6th is another ddr3 slot only.

Its showing as 2 gig but single channel, have i got to move one of them over to no4?

put the memory into the yellow slots not next to each other. 1and 4 or 2 and 5
