automatically during the process of re-engaging the lever after you insert
the CPU.
1-4 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.
Dual Channel Memory Configuration
This motherboard provides four memory sockets and
supports Dual Channel Technology. After the memory
is installed, the BIOS will automatically detect
the specifications and capacity of the
memory. Enabling Dual Channel memory mode will double the original
memory bandwidth.
Please visit GIGABYTE's website for details on hardware installation.
The four memory sockets are divided into two channels and each channel has two memory
sockets as following:
Channel A: DDR4_2, DDR4_4
Channel B: DDR4_1, DDR4_3

(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 and installed
in the same colored sockets.
