System Memory (Dram); Central Processing Unit (Cpu) - MSI TX98 Manual

2-6 System Memory (DRAM)

This main board can be installed with 72 pin SIMM module DRAM, or 168 pins
DIMM module synchronous DRAM. The DRAM memory system on main board
consists of BANK 0 & BANK 1, for 72 pin SIMM socket was defined to be BANK 0,
BANK1 and SDRAM1 & SDRAM2 to be BANK 0 & BANK 2 (SIMM1, SIMM2,
SIMM3 & SIMM4).
Because of the 72-pins SIMM module is 32 bits width using 2 pcs which can match
a 64 bits pentium system.
Install DRAM on this main board please reference the table below.

2-7 Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The main board provides a 321-pins ZIF Socket 7. The CPU on mother board must
have a fan attached to prevent overheating.
WARNING: Without a fan, the CPU will be overheated and cause damage to both the
CPU and the motherboard.
