Memory Configurations

The Vig390s with Intel E7525 MCH supports Dual channel (Interleaved) mode memory organisation:

Dual channel (Interleaved) mode: This mode offers the highest throughput for real world applications. Dual channel mode is enabled when the installed memory capacities of both DIMM channels are equal. Technology and device width can vary from one channel to the other but the installed memory capacity for each channel must be equal. If different speed DIMMs are used between channels, the slowest memory timing will be used.

Single channel (Asymmetric) mode: This mode is equivalent to single channel bandwidth operation for real world applications. This mode is used when only a single DIMM is installed or the memory capacities are unequal. Technology and device width can vary from one channel to the other. If different speed DIMMs are used between channels, the slowest memory timing will be used.

NOTE:

The DIMM A2 and B2 sockets of both channels are blue. The DIMM A1and B1 sockets of both channels are black.

Figure 4: Memory Channel and DIMM Configuration

Dual channel mode: Installed modules must be the same therefore for 1GB total system memory two 512MB modules would be installed in sockets A1 and B1.
