Is Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master a Daisy Chain or a T-Topology type of board?

[NDRE28]

Hello!

 

I recently discovered that there are 2 types of boards:

1: Daisy Chain &

2: T-Topology.

From what I’ve heard, the daisy chain type works better with 2 memory modules, while the t-topology works better with 4 memory modules.

Some say on the internet that the Z390 Aorus Master is T-Topology type. I couldn’t find a good link on this subject for this particular board.

I use my PC as a workstation for music production.

I don’t enable memory XMP (it’s a PnP type anyway).

To me, it’s not so important to run memory at super speed, because I’m not a gamer. But I do need to move around large audio files, so I’d like to increase my memory size from 32GB to 64GB.

 

Questions: 

1. Is Z390 Aorus Master a t-topology type?

2. Is there a way to check if it’s a t-topology or a daisy chain type? 

3. Is there something else that I should know?

We already answered this on the Gigabyte forums.  Why did you post this here when you already know the answer? o.o

You did?

Actually I just got the answer from somebody on the Gigabyte forum a few minutes ago.

I could have sworn this was answered earlier.  Otherwise I would have said T-topology, unless this was also asked on reddit and I thought it was answered.

Daisy chain boards are annoying because you have to find out which of the two matching bank (e.g. A1/B1 or A2/B2) dimm slots work best with two sticks.

 

As far as I know, all of the 4-slot Z390 Gigabyte boards are T-topology.

Thanks! 

Yeah, that’s what the other member from the Gigabyte forum said too. 

Also, I found a video on YouTube made by Buldzoid who said the same thing about Gigabyte boards.
