    Dual-channel enabled memory modules cannot alleviate the problem of insufficient memory capacity.

    Dual-channel: Dual-channel memory technology is to make two memory controllers in the Northbridge (also known as GMH) chipset, and the two memory controllers can work independently of each other. On these two memory channels, the CPU can address and read data separately, which doubles the bandwidth of the memory and doubles the speed of data access (in theory).

    Dual-channel technology is a technology that relates to the motherboard's chipset and has nothing to do with the memory itself. Dual-channel memory control technology can be very effective in increasing memory bandwidth, especially for software that needs to exchange data frequently with memory and chipsets that integrate graphics cores (integrated onboard graphics).

    To put it simply, it used to be a person who worked, and now it is still a person who works, but now the speed of the person who works is twice as fast as before, do you say fast?

    This fast does not increase the number of people who do the work!! The fact is that the speed has been increased (theoretically).

    Running out of memory means that the software you're running requires you to add (spend money on) more memory.

    Dual-channel technology: It doesn't increase the original memory, but runs faster.

    Large-scale 3D games need the ability of the graphics card, and there are recommendations on what level of graphics card to use in the game, and if it is not too much, it is not a big problem.

    Forgive me for hearing about the three channels! The average user feels luxurious.

    I'm sorry, I haven't heard of the four channels.

    It's not cost-effective... And,It's still a question whether you can play it.,You still get a cheap AM2+ interface C61+5000+Black box+5550(240) to play.。。。 1GD2 RAM is OK, 2G is best.

    No way. will be unstable.

    Dual-channel memory must be composed of the same frequency, and the capacity can be different. Memory of different capacities is composed of elastic dual-channel, or asymmetric dual-channel.

    Dual-channel is the design of two memory controllers at the Northbridge (also known as MCH) chip level, which can work independently of each other, and each controller controls a memory channel. In these two memories, data can be addressed and read separately by the CPU, doubling the bandwidth of the memory and doubling the speed of data access (theoretically).

    The popular dual-channel memory architecture is built with two 64-bit DDR memory controllers with a bandwidth of up to 128 bits. Because the two memory controllers in the dual-channel system are independent and complementary intelligent memory controllers, they can operate simultaneously with zero waiting time between them. This complementary "nature" of the two memory controllers allows for a 50% reduction in effective wait time, doubling the bandwidth of memory.

    Dual-channel is a new technology used in the motherboard chipset (Athlon-64 is integrated into the CPU), and has nothing to do with the memory itself, any DDR memory can work on a motherboard that supports dual-channel technology, so there is no such thing as "memory supports dual-channel".

    Intel Flex Memory Technology is Intel Flex Memory Technology, which makes the combination of memory more flexible, allowing different capacities, different specifications and even unpaired memories to form dual channels, making system configuration and memory upgrades more flexible. Intel's resilient dual-channel technology has been used since the 915 chipset, but it wasn't until the 945 955 chipset that it matured and became practical. And the chipset is optimized for better performance.

    On most ATX motherboards, there will be 4 memory slots divided into two different colors, and two adjacent slots of different colors form a memory channel. Intel's Flex Dual-Channel technology has the following two dual-channel memory operating modes:

    1.Symmetrical dual-channel operation.

    The symmetrical dual-channel working mode requires the memory capacity of the two channels to be equal, but there is no strict requirement for the absolute symmetry of the memory capacity, which can be 512MB +512MB for channel A and 1GB for channel B, as long as the total capacity of channel A and channel B is equal. Dual-channel mode is available with 2, 3, or 4 memory modules, depending on the speed of the memory module installed in the system, if the speed of the memory module is different. The details are as follows:

    1) Absolute symmetry of memory modules. This is the most ideal symmetrical dual-channel, that is, insert the same capacity of memory sticks in the same color slots, the number of memory modules is 2 or 4, and all the memory in this mode works in dual-channel mode, which has the strongest performance.

    2) Symmetry of memory capacity. This mode does not require the same number of memory sticks in the two channels, it can be composed of 3 memory channels to form a dual channel, and the total memory capacity of the two channels is equal, and all the memory also works in the dual channel mode, and the performance is slightly inferior to mode (1).

    2.Asymmetrical dual-channel mode.

    In asymmetric dual-channel mode, the memory capacity of the two channels can be unequal, and the size of the memory capacity that makes up the dual channel depends on the channel with the smaller capacity. For example, if channel A has 512 MB of memory and channel B has 1 GB of memory, 512 MB in channel A and 512 MB in channel B form dual channels, and the remaining 512 MB memory in channel B still works in single-channel mode. It is important to note that both RAM must be plugged into slots of the same color.

    No. The main consideration of the memory module is compatibility.

    The selection of memory basically depends on three major items.

    The first consideration is the main frequency, because the memory of different main frequencies is plugged together or the motherboard does not support the motherboard at all, which will cause compatibility problems.

    For example, the motherboard supports 800, 1066, 1333 and the like, which does not mean that the motherboard can be plugged in at the same time.

    For example, the first one is 800MHz, and the second one is 1066MHz. The result is that the 1066 drops to 800 running, which is a "bucket effect" of how much your motherboard supports, which are detailed on the motherboard's box and instructions.

    Moreover, it is better to have the same memory brand, otherwise different processes used by different manufacturers may be incompatible even if the parameters are the same.

    The second is capacity, although the larger the capacity of the memory, the better. But to be honest, the average user uses 4G of RAM, which is more than enough. Moreover, the 32-bit WinODWS system can only support the memory capacity.

    No matter how big the system is, it won't be recognized. Therefore, if you want to upgrade to 4G or more, you must use a 64-bit system. You can right-click on "My Computer" and select what are the bits of the writing system in "Properties".

    The third is CL delay, which is a term that cannot be explained in three words and Mandarin. A brief description is as follows.

    CL reaction time is another indicator of balanced memory. CL is the abbreviation of CAS latency, which refers to the latency time required for memory to access data, and simply put, it is the response speed of memory after receiving instructions from the CPU. The general parameter values are 2 and 3.

    The lower the number, the shorter the time it takes to react. This is a problem caused by the production process, so it is a factor that must be observed when shopping for branded memory. (represents the quality of the manufacturer).

    Another interpretation is that memory latency can basically be explained as the amount of time the system waits for a memory response before entering a state where the data is ready for an access operation.

    Hello! 1. Dual-channel memory must have 2 memory, as for the capacity and frequency of the main frequency, it is only a matter of partial memory and capacitivity, generally the same brand is fine. A 1G and a 2G should be able to form a dual channel, but it is better to be the same.

    2. The rules for the formation of the memory dual-channel mode intel motherboard are slot 1 and slot 3, slot 2 and slot 4, although the notebook only has 2 slots, but it is still identified according to this standard in bus identification.

    It can form a dual channel, but the effect may be 2G, because the other G is idle.

    It must be the same size, the same model, and the same frequency.

    It's that there are two memory module slots that can be connected to two pieces of memory.

Theoretically, as long as the same memory is inserted in the same color slot, there will be no compatibility problem. 13,24 Insert memory at the same time or dual-channel,Performance is not improved compared to a dual-channel,But it is obvious that inserting four memory for the performance of the computer is still a great improvement,Plugging in two 512M dual-channel is of course better than plugging in 256 respectively。 Theoretically, memory access will be twice as fast as before when you make up a dual-channel, but only if your motherboard supports dual-channel memory technology.

DDR3 is definitely DDR2 good, but the slots are not the same, that is to say, two slots cannot be inserted into the same slot. If you originally support DDR2 800, then you can only change DDR2. If the motherboard is a mix of DDR2 and DDR3, remember to correspond.

Mixed plugging is possible, as long as the parameters of the two memories are about the same, in fact, as long as it is not dual-channel, the parameters of DDR memory are similar, generally put the latest maximum capacity in bank0, and then bank1, that is, your 512MDDR400 is placed in bank0 slot (the one closest to the CPU), and 256DDR333 is placed in bank1. Of course, if you mix and plug in, the DDR400 will automatically drop to 333 to run, but the increase in capacity can make up for the lack of speed, and the speed is almost unfelt, if you are running large software, large memory will definitely prevail. You can tell by the speed at which you open a word file. >>>More
