SH55J2

Dual-Channel mode Population Rule

In Dual-Channel mode, the memory modules can transmit and receive data with two data bus lines simultaneously. Enabling Dual-Channel mode can enhance the system performance. The following illustrations explain the population rules for Dual-Channel mode.

Because of the SH55J2's onboard graphics card is built-in by the CPU, and some CPUs have graphics built-in, some haven't in the LGA1156 generation. So, please make sure which kind of CPU you need before buying the CPU. Below is a table to separate which series has graphics or not.

Processor Integrated Graphics Card
Intel Core i7-8xx Series
Intel Core i5-7xx Series
Intel Core i5-6xx Series
Intel Core i3-5xx Series
Intel Pentium Series

Reason: Windows files on installation CD are too old for SH55J2 hardware.

Solution: Use Windows XP installation CD with integrated service pack 2 or higher.

Reason: Machine uses old BIOS which is not compatible to i5-6xx CPU series.

Solution: BIOS Update to V1.06 or later version.
