1.8.2 EDP Panel / LVDS Panel Voltage Selection (JEDP1_LVDS1) The AIMB-208 motherboard contains a jumper that can erase CMOS data and reset the system BIOS information. Normally, this jumper should be set with pins 1-2 closed. If you want to reset the CMOS data, set CMOS1 to 2-3 closed for just a few seconds, and then move the jumper back to 1-2 closed.
Clear CMOS Data (4-6) System Memory AIMB-208 has two sockets for a 260-pin DDR4 SO-DIMM. These sockets use a 1.2 V unbuffered double data rate synchronous DRAM (DDR SDRAM). DRAM is available in capacities of 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB. The sockets can take any combination with SODIMMs of any size, giving a total memory size between 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, and up to max 64GB.
