TYAN TRINITY GC-SL Manual page 17

Before installing your motherboard, make sure your chassis has the necessary motherboard
support studs installed. These studs are usually metal and are gold in color. Usually, the chassis
manufacturer will pre-install the support studs.
- Memory Type: The S2707 Trinity GC-SL only supports Registered DDR memory with ECC.
Non-registered or non-ECC DDR memory modules will NOT be supported.
- CPU Front-Side Bus Speed Match: The S2707 Trinity GC-SL memory frequency is
synchronized with both CPU and onboard memory controller front-side bus, which means the
memory module speed rate should match the CPU FSB. For example, with an Intel P4
533MHz Front-Side Bus (FSB) processor, the memory only supports DDR266/PC2100 Registered
ECC modules.
Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and how they
should be installed.
TIP: Use metal studs if possible, as they hold the motherboard into place more securely than
plastic standoffs.
