Dual Channel DDR/DDR II
GA-8I915P Duo (Pro) supports the Dual Channel Technology. After operating the Dual Channel Technology,
the bandwidth of Memory Bus will add double up to 6.4GB/s(DDR) ; 8.5GB(DDRII)
GA-8I915P Duo (Pro) includes 4 DIMM sockets, and each Channel has two DIMM sockets as following:
Channel A : DDR 1 or Channel A : DDR II 1
Channel B : DDR 2 Channel B : DDR II 2
If you want to operate the Dual Channel Technology, please note the following explanations due
to the limitation of Intel chipset specifications.
1. One DDR/DDR II memory module is installed: The Dual Channel Technology can't operate
when only one DDR/DDR II memory module is installed.
2. Two DDR/DDR II memory modules are installed (the same memory size and type): The Dual
Channel Technology will operate when two memory modules are inserted individually into
Channel A and B.
We'll strongly recommend our user to slot two DDR/DDR II memory modules into the DIMMs with the same
color in order for Dual Channel Technology to work.
The following table is for Dual Channel Technology combination: (DS: Double Side, SS: Single Side)
2 memory modules
DDR 1 DDR 2
DS/SS DS/SS
2 memory modules
DDR II 1 DDR II 2
DS/SS DS/SS
OR
Note:Mixed mode, populating DDR and DDR II memory modules simultaneously is not supported.
