If you install Windows
limitation of this OS version is that it may reserve a certain amount of memory
space for system devices. We recommend that you install less than 3 GB
system memory if you would like to work under Windows
version OS. The excess memory installation will not cause any usage problem,
but it will not give users the benefit of manipulating this excess memory space.
The motherboard can support 8 GB physical memory on the operating system
listed below. You may install a maximum of 2 GB DIMMs on each slot.
1-14
When using only one memory module, start installing the DDR2 DIMM from
slot DIMM_A1 or DIMM_B1 for better overclocking capability.
For dual-channel configuration (2), you may:
- install identical DIMMs in all four sockets OR
- install identical DIMM pair in DIMM_A1 and DIMM_B1 (yellow sockets)
and another identical DIMM pair in DIMM_A2 and DIMM_B2 (black
sockets)
Always use identical DDR2 DIMM pairs for dual channel mode. For
optimum compatibility, we recommend that you obtain memory modules
from the same vendor.
