(Note 1) Due to standard PC architecture, a certain amount of memory is reserved for system usage
and therefore the actual memory size is less than the stated amount.
For example, 4 GB of memory size will instead be shown as 3.xxGB memory during system
startup.
(Note 2) To use a DDRII 667 memory module on the motherboard, you must install an 800/1066MHz
FSB processor .
