Hardware Installation

Dual Channel Memory Configuration

This  motherboard  provides  two  DDR3  memory  sockets  and  supports  Dual  Channel  Technology.  After  the 

memory  is  installed,  the  BIOS  will  automatically  detect  the  specifications  and  capacity  of  the  memory.  En

-

abling Dual Channel memory mode will double the original memory bandwidth.

The two DDR3 memory sockets are divided into two channels and each channel has one memory socket as 

following:

Channel 0: DDR3_1

Channel 1: DDR3_2

1-4  Installing the Memory

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the memory:

Make  sure  that  the  motherboard  supports  the  memory.  It  is  recommended  that  memory  of  the 

•

same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used.

  (Go to GIGABYTE's website for the latest supported memory speeds and memory modules.)

Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing 

•

the memory to prevent hardware damage.

Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in only one direc-

•

tion. If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.

Due to CPU limitations, read the following guidelines before installing the memory in Dual Channel mode.
 

1.  Dual Channel mode cannot be enabled if only one DDR3 memory module is installed.

2.  When enabling Dual Channel mode with two memory modules, it is recommended that memory of 

the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used for optimum performance.

1-5  Installing an Expansion Card

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install an expansion card:

Make sure the motherboard supports the expansion card. Carefully read the manual that came 

•

with your expansion card.
Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing 

•

an expansion card to prevent hardware damage.
