The DIMM slots are intended for system memory modules.
Installing Memory Modules
1. Locate the SO-DIMM slots on the mainboard.
2. Align the notch on the DIMM with the key on the slot. Insert the DIMM vertically into
the SO-DIMM slot. Then push it in until the golden finger on the DIMM is deeply
inserted in the SO-DIMM slot.
3. Manually check if the DIMM has been locked in place by the retaining clips at the
sides.
Important
1. Make sure that you install the memory modules first before installing
the CPU and cooler set.
2. Always insert the memory module into the DIMM 1 first.
