asus A8V rev2 dual channel ram

Hi guys,

I was installing my new motherboard last night and I read an interesting comment in the manual.

It basicly said that you could fill up all four memory slots with ram and as long as it was paired ram, all four slots would run as dual channel

eg:

---> channel 1
---> channel 2
---> channel 1
---> channel 2

as was under the impression that only one bank of slots could be used as dual channel as as soon as you put in another 2 simms it would loose dual channel functionality

I'm using an AMD 64 cpu - so that should mean the memory controller is on the chip - incase that makes any difference.

Comments/experiences with this ?

It is Inevitable.....
