Given a scenario, configure settings and use BIOS/UEFI tools on a PC
  1. Firmware upgrades/Flash BIOS
    1. RAM
      1. Check the motherboard specs, find out how many channels it is built to support on the manufacturer's website.
        1. Color coated slots indicate how many sticks you're supposed to populate at one time with one kit.
          1. A quad channel kit can be reduced to a triple channel kit or a double channel kit.
            1. A memory kit is simply a package of RAM sticks that will work flawlessly together.
              1. If you're populating your memory with unmatched sticks there's a chance they won't operate in double\triple\quad channel.
                1. A quad channel motherboard with a single stick installed gives you 1\4th of the total bandwidth that the CPU might need.
                2. Hard drive
                  1. Optical Drive
