When installing your RAM, it can make a difference which banks you choose to use. Many modern boards support dual-channel memory architecture, which can speed memory transfers if RAM is used in matched pairs and inserted in designated "paired" slots. "Pairable" memory comes as a set of two modules with identical specs; the paired slots, if present, are usually color-coded. If you're using pairable RAM, be sure to put the two modules in the matching-color slots. And if you're shopping for RAM, bear in mind that two sticks of dual-channel memory adding up to a given capacity can provide better performance than a single stick of that capacity.
