Recently I have built a new gaming pc
My specifications are :
AMD a8 6600k black edition 3.9 GHz overclock 4.1-4.2 GHz
Gigabyte GA-G1 sniper a88x motherboard bios version F8
Corsair Vengeance 8 GB ( 2x4 GB) 1600 mhz overclocking memory
My motherboard supports the Dual Channel memory mode. In the manual of my motherboard it is said that dual channel memory mode can be enable in bios by installing 2 same RAMs. Manuel says that by enabling this mode, will double the original memory bandwidth. I put that memories in proper slots. But I don't found any option in the bios to enable that the mode.
Manual page no. 10

Put the two sticks in the black slots (should work in the green also), and should be in dual channel mode, can check with CPU-Z (free downloadable app) by checking in the memory tab (upper right next to 'Channels #' should show as Dual
