How to use

Power off the computer and disconnect it from the mains. Open the PC case, locate the memory slots on the motherboard and refer to the motherboard manual for the recommended slot population for dual-channel operation.

Check BIOS/UEFI to ensure the modules are recognized and running at the expected frequency and timings.

Recommendations

Verify motherboard compatibility before installation: some Intel 4-series chipsets and very old systems may not support certain DDR3 kits or the specified timings. If needed, update the BIOS/UEFI and consult the motherboard documentation for supported memory specifications.
