Doesn't look like memory channels are working.

I have 8 sticks of DDR4 dominator platinum @3ghz in an Asus X99 Deluxe. They're identical, all came out of identical packages from the same vendor.

When I load up CPU-Z everything looks correct, except Channel # is blank. Is this an indication that my quad channel isn't active? If so, is there a way to test this? I don't see anything in my bios related to channels. I may have missed something though, not sure.

I get 16gb/sec through novabench, if that helps at all. Comparing to a friends DDR3 it sounds right. Just wanted to run it by some people who know more than I do about it. Lets call it a sanity check.

Thanks brothers.

This is probably a problem with CPU-Z with the new platform of the X99 if I read that correct it says you have 16GB it just doesn't know what channel it's in. Go to computer, system and if it's showing 16GB their then you have it working. I would just to be on the safe side recheck the manual to make sure you have the memory in the right slots to get quad channel speed.
