I was just thinking about that for a moment.

From the system's perspective, everything works as a single large pool. With two DIMMs it won't fill one completely before starting the other, the data remains roughly balanced between them (similar to a stripe or RAID 0 setup).

RAM operating in dual-channel mode will distribute workloads evenly between the channels, ensuring maximum efficiency. This performance boost comes from processing memory operations simultaneously on multiple drives, keeping data volumes balanced across each channel.

Usage distribution will be balanced. If you want to track transfer activity, HWiNFO displays per DIMM as I remember.

Typically the CPU prefers even distribution. Data flows from one port, processes it in the core, then sends it back to the other side. Maybe I’m recalling wrong since Comp Arch was a while back.
