This is great in both theory and practice as dual-channel memory can significantly impact performance in some interesting ways.
For example, if you only have a single RAM stick installed inside your computer, you may experience occasional stutters and lag in games, especially during intense moments. This is where having dual-channel memory makes a huge difference. But what about quad-channel memory? Quad-channel memory allows four identical sticks of RAM to communicate as efficiently as possible. In theory, this should result in a performance increase. However, in practice, the differences between dual-channel and quad-channel are negligible.
Unless you are running some very specific tasks that are heavy on the RAM, you should not worry about quad-channel memory.
So, what is the point of it then? If you are confused why your motherboard does not support quad channel memory if it has four RAM slots, the answer is pretty straightforward. Quad channel memory does not add many, if any, performance benefits and it adds additional costs to the motherboard manufacturing process. Quad channel memory technology is reserved for high-end motherboards. Cheaper CPUs do not support quad channel memory either.
So, quad channel memory is one of many ways that manufacturers differentiate expensive motherboards from cheaper ones. That is one way that you can tell. But what is a surefire way to tell does my motherboard support quad channel memory?
Most motherboards nowadays have four slots and they are almost always color-coded using two different colors to differentiate the channels. The channels typically skip a slot. For example, RAM slots 1 and 3 work in dual channel as well as 2 and 4. When installing RAM, make sure you put them into the correct slots. Joined Oct 19, Messages 7, 1. Quad channel is typically more expensive and is an enthusiast level technology. Joined Mar 10, Messages 9, 2. Why would someone spend so much on ram for an Apu or any lower to mainstream pc.
In general either company could have put more memory channels in but Amd see no need since they make do with two to three cpu designs per generation and use such things to differentiate between spec and price, Intel make more designs but use far more cutting techniques to differentiate even further hence their massive Sku list. Would be nice but it's impractical at low to mid range due to pricing imho.

When you have a single lane road and you make it double lane, you can get to your destination faster. Making the road four lanes is not going to make it much faster than 2 lanes. Last edited: Feb 13, Joined Nov 7, Messages 6, 2. Gasaraki said:. Joined Apr 7, Messages 1, 0.
