Gigabyte Z590 VISION G [12/52] 4 installing the memory

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:DDR4_A1,DDR4_A2

ChannelB:DDR4_B1,DDR4_B2

RecommandedDualChannelMemoryConguration:

(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.

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
