Just a quick question I'm not sure where to put my Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-6400C4 TwinX (2x1GB) into my motherboard, either the two orange slots or is it just orange and the black one next to it?
i think u want to have this memory sticks in Dual Chanel to double the memory bandwidth. To enable Dual Channel place one stick of ram in Slot 1 and other stick on slot 3, wish will be both oranges, and done.enjoy pc.
make sure power supply its unplug before installation.
David86, have you read the handbook that came with your motherboard......?
counting slots from the bottom up you have 4, 2 yellow, 2 black
The first 2 slots are socket A1 and B1
The next 2 slots are socket A2 and B2
Yep, that's why they're color coded. Place both sticks in the orange slots to run in dual channel. If you didn't have dual channel ram, it wouldn't matter.
