Memory; Memory Population Rules - MSI MS-7043 User Manual

The PT880 Neo-V provides 3 slots for 184-pin, 2.5V DDR DIMM and supports
up to 3GB memory size. You can install DDR266/DDR333/DDR400/DDR433/DDR466
SDRAM modules on the DDR DIMM slots (DIMM 1~3).
The PT8 Neo-V & PX8 Neo-V provide 2 slots for 184-pin, 2.5V DDR DIMM and
supports up to 2GB memory size. You can install DDR266 / DDR333 / DDR400 (for
PT8 Neo-V only) / DDR433 (for PT8 Neo-V only)/DDR466 (for PT8 Neo-V only)
SDRAM modules on the DDR DIMM slots (DIMM 1~2).
To operate properly, at least one DIMM module must be installed. Please note
that DDR433/DDR466 are overclocking specs for PT880 Neo-V/PT8 Neo-V
only.

Memory Population Rules

Install at least one DIMM module on the slots. Each DIMM slot supports up to a
maximum size of 1GB. You can install either single- or double-sided modules to meet
your own needs.
The PT880 Neo-V supports dual-channel mode and the PT8 Neo-V & PX8 Neo-
V support only single-channel mode. Users may install memory modules of different
types and density under single-channel mode. Under dual-channel mode, however,
please make sure that you install memory modules of the same type and density
on DDR DIMMs "in pairs" -- {DIMM1 & DIMM3} or {DIMM2 & DIMM3} to ensure
system stability.
Memory modules can be installed in any combination as follows:
