1. Installing DDR DIMMs other than the recommended configurations
may cause memory sizing error or system boot failure. Use any of
the recommended configurations in Table 1.
2. In dual-channel configurations, install only i d e n t i c a l
type and size) DDR DIMM pairs for each channel.
3. Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum
compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules
from the same vendor.
4. Make sure that the memory frequency matches the CPU FSB (Front
Side Bus). Refer to Table 2.
5. DIMMs installed into a n y t h r e e
single-channel mode.
6. When all four sockets are populated with 1 GB DIMMs (total 4GB),
the system may detect only about 3.6+ GB (less than 4 GB) due to
chipset limitation.
