Solved: dual channel or not

907 Views 7 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  griffinspc
Hi. I previously had in my system a matched pair of 512 MB Crucial Ballistix PC3200 dimms on an ASUS A8n sli deluxe.One of them crapped out. I've just bought another matched pair and a single module to bring the total up to two gigs. The system now tells me I have these running in single channel only. As far as I know, all four modules are exactly the same spec, manufacturer, etc. If I run only the two new dimms it's dual channel fun. Any suggestions? Cheers.

Yeah buf, I've used all 4 slots in the correct order. Triple 6, the new modules work fine in slots 1 and 3. Dual channel but, when I add the other two dimms it reverts back to single channel
Thanks for the tip griffinspc. sure enough the older dimm and the new odd one won't function in dual channel when in slots 1 and 3. It's the same Crucial ram, same specs etc. Must be some other difference. Think I'll email Crucial and see what the craic is. Cheers.
