Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the memory :
■ Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended that
memory of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used, and please
select Dual channel first to achieve optimum performance.
■ Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet
before installing the memory to prevent hardware damage.
■ Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in
only one direction. If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.
