mode
This mainboard supports up to four memory channels. Two DIMM slots provide a single channel. The memory modules can transmit and receive data with four data bus channels simultaneously to enhance system performance. Please refer the following tables for more details.
| Defined Channel list |
Channel | DIMM Slot |
Channel A | DIMM1, DIMM2 |
Channel B | DIMM3, DIMM4 |
Channel C | DIMM5, DIMM6 |
Channel D | DIMM7, DIMM8 |
Important
•DDR3 memory modules are not interchangeable with DDR2, and the DDR3 standard is not backward compatible. Always install DDR3 memory modules in DDR3 DIMM slots.
•Always insert memory modules in the DIMM1 slot first.
•Due to chipset resource usage, the system will only detect up to 127+ GB of memory (not full 128 GB) when all DIMM slots have 16GB memory modules installed.
