The system board supports DDR SDRAM DIMM. Double Data Rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM) is a type of SDRAM that doubles the data rate through reading and writing at both the rising and falling edge of each clock. This effectively doubles the speed of operation therefore doubling the speed of data transfer.
The four DDR DIMM sockets on the system board are divided into 2 channels:
Channel A - DDR 1 and DDR 2 Channel B - DDR 3 and DDR 4
18
Hardware Installation
The system board supports the following memory interface.
Single Channel (SC)
Data will be accessed in chunks of 64 bits (8B) from the memory channels.
Virtual Single Channel (VSC)
If both channels are populated with different memory configurations, the MCH defaults to Virtual Single Channel.
Dual Channel (DC)
Dual channel provides better system performance because it doubles the data transfer rate.
Dynamic Mode Addressing
This mode minimizes the overhead of opening/closing pages in memory banks allowing for row switching to be done less often.

BIOS Setting
“Memory Frequency For” in the Advanced Chipset Features submenu of the BIOS must be set accordingly.
DIMMs are on the same channel. DIMMs in a channel can be identical or completely different. Not all slots need to be populated.
DIMMs of different memory configurations are on different channels. Odd number of slots can be populated.
DIMMs of the same memory configuration are on different channels.
In single channel, requires even number or rows (side of the DIMM) populated. This mode can be enabled with 1 SS, 2 SS or 2 DS.
In VSC mode, both channels must have identical row structure.
