Installing and Removing Memory

NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel SDRAM memory specifications, the board
requires DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. You can

The desktop board has two 240-pin DDR2 DIMM sockets providing Channel A and
Channel B. For dual-channel performance, install a matched pair of DIMMs equal in
speed and size (see Figure 13).
