Measurement wise, how can you tell whether your system is running memory in
dual channel mode?

Thanks in advance.

It should show "dual channel enabled" or "dual channel mode" or something
like that in the BIOS splash screens. It goes by quick though, and you will
NOT see it if the board isn't running RAM in dual channel. -Dave

Benchmark it against running with only one DIMM in. Seriosuly though,
it'll tell you on the POST display.

The post screen stays a long time if you hit the Pause key as soon as
it comes up. ;-)

I think that might depend on your main board. I just tried it and mine
didn't.
