    I never heard of a motherboard which would not work with a single DIMM. I have run into boards which required a specific order of DIMMs into the memory slots. If the manual does not list it, try all slots one by one.

  • The order is actually a little different from what I expected according to the manual, the first stick should be put in the second slot. Could there be any other reasons why it is not starting? I have tried with two different PSUs as well, thought maybe it did not give enough watt. The guide says it could be run with mixed RAM speeds, only the slowest would be used. Single channel are not specified by the specs. It is a workstation/server board by the way, not gaming.

    It would have been nice to specify your motherboard model and RAM.

  • No. It is a simple question. If the motherboard have specified 2DPC, could RAM sticks be required which are dual-channel? As I only have one RAM-stick which is single channel? It actually says 2x8gb on the stick. But it is a single stick of course. The components are all after 2020.
