• When using only one memory module, start installing the DDR2 DIMM from
slot DIMM_A1 or DIMM_B1 for better overclocking capability.
• For dual-channel conguration (2), you may:
- install identical DIMMs in all four sockets; OR
- install an identical DIMM pair in DIMM_A1 and DIMM_B1 (yellow
slots) and another identical DIMM pair in DIMM_A2 and DIMM_B2
(black slots)
• Always use identical DDR2 DIMM pairs for dual-channel mode. For
optimum compatibility, we recommend that you obtain memory modules
from the same vendor.
