Is there a simple way to tell that you are running in dual channel mode. I have a NF7-S and have 2 sticks of ram on row 1 and 3. Thats the correct placement of the ram for dual mode, but wondering if theres a way to tell its working. Thanks!

In the motherboard forum NF7-S thread someone posted a new bios out today.I know with the latest 8RDA+ bios it tells you on bootup that DC is enabled.

If you have the sticks in slots 1 and 3, it really has no option but to run in dual-channel mode (unless it is not recognizing one of the DIMMs at all), because those slots are connected to different memory controllers and nForce2 simply load-balances between the two.
