The motherboard comes with eight Double Data Rate 2 (DDR II) Dual Inline
Memory Module (DIMM) sockets to support 240-pin DDR II modules.

The figure illustrates the location of the DDR II DIMM sockets :

Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum
compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules
from the same vendor. Refer to the DDR Qualified Vendors List at the
ASUS web site.

Due to chipset resource allocation, the system may detect less than 16 GB
system memory when you installed eight 2 GB DDR II memory modules.

This motherboard does not support memory modules made up of 128
Mb chips or double-rank x16 memory modules.

If you are installing only one memory module, install into the blue socket
labeled DIMM_B4. Installing into any other socket would not work.
