Move that 2nd ram stick into the 3rd port for running the memory in dual-channel. It will increase your rams throughput/more bandwidth for each.

You are incorrect. :shadedshu
This board runs dual channel in slots 1 and 2, or 3 and 4, or 1, 2, 3 and 4. So he has it right! :)


And welcome to the 690 club, nice rig! :rockout:
