Installing Memory Modules - MATSONIC MS7177CT User Manual

Installing Memory Modules

For this mainboard, you must use 168-pin 3.3V non-buffered
Dual In-line Memory Modules (DIMMs). The memory chips
must be standard or registered SDRAM and VCM SDRAM
memory chips.
The memory bus can run at 66 MHz, 100 MHz, or 133 MHz. If
your processor operates over a 133 MHz system bus, you can
install PC133 or PC100 memory that operates over a 133 or
100 MHz bus. If your processor operates over a 100 MHz
system bus, you can install memory that operates over a
133MHz, 100 MHz or 66MHz bus. If your processor operates
over a 66MHz, you can only install memory chips that operate
at 66MHz or 100MHz.
