2-4 Installing the Memory

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the memory:

• Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended that memory of the same

capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used. (Go to GIGABYTE's website for the latest supported

memory speeds and memory modules.)

• 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.

* Recommended Dual Channel Memory Conguration:

DDR5_A1jk

DDR4_A1lm

DDR5_A2jk

DDR4_A2lm

DDR5_B1jk

DDR4_B1lm

DDR5_B2jk

DDR4_B2lm

2 Modules - - DS/SS - - DS/SS

4 Modules DS/SS DS/SS DS/SS DS/SS

(SS=Single-Sided, DS=Double-Sided, "- -"=No Memory)

Due to CPU limitations, read the following guidelines before installing the memory in Dual Channel mode.

1. Dual Channel mode cannot be enabled if only one memory module is installed.

2. When enabling Dual Channel mode with two or four memory modules, it is recommended that memory of

the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used.

When installing a single memory module, we recommend that you install it in the DDR5_A2jk/

DDR4_A2lm or DDR5_B2jk/DDR4_B2lm socket.

DDR5_A1jk/DDR4_A1lm

DDR5_A2jk/DDR4_A2lm

DDR5_B1jk/DDR4_B1lm

DDR5_B2jk/DDR4_B2lm

DualChannelMemoryConguration

This motherboard provides four memory sockets and supports Dual Channel Technology. After the memory

is installed, the BIOS will automatically detect the specications and capacity of the memory. Enabling Dual

Channel memory mode will double the original memory bandwidth.

The four memory sockets are divided into two channels and each channel has two memory sockets as following:

Channel A: DDR5_A1jk/DDR4_A1lm, DDR5_A2jk/DDR4_A2lm

Channel B: DDR5_B1jk/DDR4_B1lm, DDR5_B2jk/DDR4_B2lm
