→Operation: Someone went crazy spelling out and linking each DDR specification; removed to reduce clutter and improve readability. Going to such extremes might make sense if there was a break in generational DDR spec (there isn't); they're all named 'DDR' because they are derived from it. I would need to see an extremely good reason to include such enumeration in an article. |

Line 19:
* Capacity (e.g. 1024 MB). Certain Intel chipsets support different capacity chips in what they call Flex Mode: the capacity that can be matched is run in dual-channel, while the remainder runs in single-channel.
* Speed (e.g. PC5300). If speed is not the same, the lower speed of the two modules will be used. Likewise, the higher latency of the two modules will be used.
*
* Number of chips and sides (e.g. two sides with four chips on each side).

Dual-channel architecture is a technology implemented on motherboards by the motherboard manufacturer and does not apply to memory modules. Theoretically any matched pair of memory modules may be used in either single- or dual-channel operation, provided the motherboard supports this architecture.
