danio Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 I've realized reading on this forum, that orange slots are much better for dual channel RAM, and i've been running in the yellow slots for about 3 weeks since I've built this PC. I am wondering when I change the RAM to the orange slots, will there have to be any configuration to the BIOS? or anything else thankese Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fight Game Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 shouldn't be anything in the bios that needs to be changed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GripS Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Just make sure you disconnect power to the system before removing and installing the ram(yellow LED should be off). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
