English Dual Channel DDR GA-8I915G Pro supports the Dual Channel Technology. After operating the Dual Channel Technology, the bandwidth of Mem ory Bus will add double up to 6.4GB/s. GA-8I915G Pro includes 4 DIMM sockets, and each Channel has two DIM M sockets as following: Channel A : DDR 1, DDR 2 Channel B : DDR 3, DDR 4 If you want to operate the Dual Channel Technology, please note the following explanations due to the limitation of Intel chipset specifications. 1. One/three DDR mem ory module is installed: The Dual Channel Technology can't operate when only one DDR mem ory module is installed. 2. Two DDR mem ory modules are installed (the sam e m emory size and type): The Dual Channel Technology will operate when two m em ory m odules are inserted individually into Channel A and B. If you install two mem ory modules in the same channel, the Dual Channel Technology will not operate. 3. Four DDR memory modules are installed: If you install four mem ory modules at the same time, the Dual Channel Technology will operate only when those modules have the same memory size and type. We'll strongly recom mend our user to slot two DDR memory m odules into the DIMMs with the same color in order for Dual Channel Technology to work.

Dual Channel DDR
GA-8I915G Pro supports the Dual Channel Technology. After operating the Dual Channel Technology,
the bandwidth of Mem ory Bus will add double up to 6.4GB/s.
GA-8I915G Pro includes 4 DIMM sockets, and each Channel has two DIM M sockets as following:
Channel A : DDR 1, DDR 2
Channel B : DDR 3, DDR 4
If you want to operate the Dual Channel Technology, please note the following explanations due
to the limitation of Intel chipset specifications.
1.
One/three DDR mem ory module is installed: The Dual Channel Technology can't operate
when only one DDR mem ory module is installed.
2.
Two DDR mem ory modules are installed (the sam e m emory size and type): The Dual
Channel Technology will operate when two m em ory m odules are inserted individually into
Channel A and B. If you install two mem ory modules in the same channel, the Dual Channel
Technology will not operate.
3.
Four DDR memory modules are installed: If you install four mem ory modules at the same
time, the Dual Channel Technology will operate only when those modules have the same
memory size and type.
We'll strongly recom mend our user to slot two DDR memory m odules into the DIMMs with the same
color in order for Dual Channel Technology to work.
