Intel Desktop Board DX58SO Product Guide Installing and Removing Memory Intel Desktop board DX58SO has four 240-pin DDR3 DIMM sockets arranged in three channels (A, B, and C). Channel A shares two sockets (DIMM 0 and DIMM 1) and Channels B and C have one socket each. Guidelines for Memory Configuration Before installing DIMMs, read and follow these guidelines for memory configuration. Optimal memory performance can be achieved by installing three matched DIMMS of equal speed and size in the blue DIMM slots (Channel A, DIMM 0, Channel B, and Channel C) as shown in Figure 18. Figure 18. Triple Channel Memory Configuration NOTE Installing memory in Channel A, DIMM 1 may result in less than optimal memory performance. To obtain dual channel memory operation install matching DIMMs as shown in Figure 19. A typical single channel configuration is shown in Figure 20. Figure 19. Dual Channel Memory Configuration 38

Installing and Removing Memory
Intel Desktop board DX58SO has four 240-pin DDR3 DIMM sockets arranged in three
channels (A, B, and C).
Channel A shares two sockets (DIMM 0 and DIMM 1) and
Channels B and C have one socket each.
Guidelines for Memory Configuration
Before installing DIMMs, read and follow these guidelines for memory configuration.
Optimal memory performance can be achieved by installing three matched DIMMS of
equal speed and size in the blue DIMM slots (Channel A, DIMM 0, Channel B, and
Channel C) as shown in Figure 18.
Figure 18.
Triple Channel Memory Configuration
NOTE
Installing memory in Channel A, DIMM 1 may result in less than optimal memory
performance.
To obtain dual channel memory operation install matching DIMMs as shown in
Figure 19.
A typical single channel configuration is shown in Figure 20.
