Notes:

In the second column, “DS” refers to double-sided memory modules (containing two rows of SDRAM)

and “SS” refers to single-sided memory modules (containing one row of SDRAM).

In the fifth column, the number in brackets specifies the number of SDRAM devices on an ECC DIMM.

Memory Configurations

The Intel Core i7 Processor supports the following types of memory organization:

•

Tri/Dual channel (Interleaved) mode. This mode offers the highest

throughput for real world applications. Interleaving reduces overall memory

latency by accessing the DIMM memory sequentially. Data is spread amongst the

memory modules in an alternating pattern.

•

Three independent memory channels give two possible modes of interleaving:

•

Tri-channel mode is enabled when identical matched memory modules are

installed in each of the three memory channels (blue connectors).

•

Dual channel mode is enabled when two of the blue memory connectors are

populated with matched DIMMs.

•

Single channel (Asymmetric) mode. This mode is equivalent to single channel

bandwidth operation for real world applications. This mode is used when only a

single DIMM is installed or the installed memory modules are not matched.

Technology and device width can vary from one channel to the other.
