Check memory modules configuration

If your system supports more than one memory channel, you can increase the system performance by making sure that a minimum of two channels have a memory module inserted in the correct DIMM slot. Refer to the motherboard manual to find the correct DIMM slots.

Example:

A system with two memory channels and a total of 8 GB of memory obtains the best performance using a 2 x 4 GB memory module configuration.

If you use a 1 x 8 GB memory module configuration, you only use one of the memory channels.
