It is recommended that memory of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used, and please select Dual channel first to achieve optimum performance. ■ 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 direction. If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.
