English Dual Channel DDR/DDR II GA-8I915PC Duo supports the Dual Channel Technology. After operating the Dual Channel Technology, the bandwidth of Memory Bus will add double. GA-8I915PC Duo includes 4 DIMM sockets, and each Channel has two DIMM sockets as following: Channel A : DDR 1 or Channel A : DDR II 1 Channel B : DDR 2 Channel B : DDR II 2 If you want to operate the Dual Channel Technology, please note the following explanations due to the limitation of Intel chipset specifications. 1. If one or three DDR/DDRII memory modules are installed: The Dual Channel Technolog cannot operate when one or three DDR memory modules are installed. 2. Two DDR/DDR II memory modules are installed (the same memory size and type): The Dual Channel Technology will operate when two memory modules are inserted individually into Channel A and B. We'll strongly recommend our user to slot two DDR/DDR II memory modules into the DIMMs with the same color in order for Dual Channel Technology to work. The following table is for Dual Channel Technology combination: (DS: Double Side, SS: Single Side) 2 memory modules DDR 1 DS/SS DDR 2 DS/SS OR 2 memory modules DDR II 1 DS/SS DDR II 2 DS/SS Note:Mixed mode, populating DDR and DDR II memory modules simultaneously is not supported. - 15 - Hardware Installation

Dual Channel DDR/DDR II
GA-8I915PC Duo supports the Dual Channel Technology. After operating the Dual Channel Technology, the
bandwidth of Memory Bus will add double.
GA-8I915PC Duo includes 4 DIMM sockets, and each Channel has two DIMM sockets as following:
Channel A : DDR 1
or
Channel A : DDR II 1
Channel B : DDR 2
Channel B : DDR II 2
If you want to operate the Dual Channel Technology, please note the following explanations due
to the limitation of Intel chipset specifications.
1.
If one or three DDR/DDRII memory modules are installed: The Dual Channel Technolog cannot
operate when one or three DDR memory modules are installed.
2.
Two DDR/DDR II memory modules are installed (the same memory size and type): The Dual
Channel Technology will operate when two memory modules are inserted individually into
Channel A and B.
We'll strongly recommend our user to slot two DDR/DDR II memory modules into the DIMMs with the same
color in order for Dual Channel Technology to work.
The following table is for Dual Channel Technology combination: (DS: Double Side, SS: Single Side)
2 memory modules
DDR 1
DDR
2
DS/SS
DS/SS
2 memory modules
DDR II 1
DDR II 2
