3.3 Frequently Asked Questions

Question: What type of memory does my motherboard support?
Answer: The motherboard supports 64GB of DDR5 Non-ECC SODIMM memory with speeds
of up to 4800 MT/s in two memory slots. To enhance memory performance, do not mix memory
modules of different speeds and sizes. Follow all memory installation instructions given on
Section 2-4 in Chapter 2.
Question: How do I update my BIOS?
Answer: It is recommended that you do not upgrade your BIOS if you are not experiencing
any problems with your system. Updated BIOS files are located on our website at
supermicro.com/ResourceApps/BIOS_IPMI_Intel.html. Check our BIOS warning message
and the information on how to update your BIOS on our website. Select your motherboard
model and download the BIOS file to your computer. Also, check the current BIOS revision
to make sure that it is newer than your BIOS before downloading. Unzip the BIOS file onto
a bootable USB device. Run the batch file using the format FLASH.BAT filename.rom from
your bootable USB device to flash the BIOS. Then, your system will automatically reboot.
Warning: Do not shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS to prevent possible
system boot failure!
Note: The SPI BIOS chip used on this motherboard cannot be removed. Send your
motherboard back to our RMA Department at Supermicro for repair. For BIOS Recov-
ery instructions, refer to the AMI BIOS Recovery Instructions posted at
supermicro.com/support/manuals/.
