single and double sided memory

I just bought a msi k8n neo4 platinum motherboard to run my amd 3700+ cpu
and i have a gig 2x512 of corsair xms twinx ddr400 memory and i just ordered a second set
when looking at my motherboards specs it says that when you have four double sided ddr400 that they only run ad ddr333

about half way down

i was wondering how i figure out if my ram is double sided or single sided
it is corsair TWINX1024-3200C2PT

Put one pair in and run Belarc Advisor. The memory section should show 8 slots. If it shows 4 of them as being used, it's double sided. If it shows only 2 as being used, it's single sided. If it only shows 4 slots with 2 used, then you will have to find something else to test with, Belarc isn't picking up on the banking on that particular board.
