Dual Channel DDR showing as Single on Bios
Hi all,
I just built my second pc. All is well but I have Dual DDR400 on an ASUS A7N8X-X MB showing in the BIOS as running in single channel mode. What do I need to do to get the Dual Channel working ? Any ideas please.... Thanks. |

....I think I may have found a clue on the ASUS site.
It suggests you need two DIMMS to enable Dual channel mode....I have a single 512. Sound about right ?? "Jonathan Bishop" wrote in message ... Hi all, I just built my second pc.

Also, as far as I know, the A7N8X-X motherboard does not support dual-channel memory even if you had two ram sticks, as the -X is the budget version of the A7N8X family. Boff |
