Installing Or Replacing Rimm Memory - Gateway Tower User Manual

Chapter 13: Upgrading Your Computer

Installing or replacing RIMM memory

If your computer uses RIMM system memory, you need to use a combination
of Rambus Interface Memory Modules (RIMMs) and Continuity-RIMMs
(C-RIMMs). All memory slots must be filled with either a RIMM or a C-RIMM.
RIMMs
If your computer uses RIMM memory, the memory has a metal cover on one
or both sides of the module.
C-RIMMs
C-RIMMs are placeholders that let the memory modules work. A C-RIMM does
not have a metal cover on either side of the module.
