rx6600 how many memory slots available.

[f. halili]

We have an rx6600 with 8GB memory. How do I check via commandline the memory slots used/available? Should memory in rx6600 be installed/ugraded by quads?

Thanks,

[Torsten. · Accepted solution]

You have only 1 memory extender installed, but there is space for a second.

Dimms must be installed in quads.

[f. halili]

Does these mean I can install 2 more quads?

Ext 0 DIMM 2A ---- Ext 0 DIMM 2B ----
Ext 0 DIMM 2C ---- Ext 0 DIMM 2D ----
Ext 0 DIMM 3A ---- Ext 0 DIMM 3B ----

Each quad will be install like this

2A 2B 2C 2D

so you have space for 4 quads.
