System memory

This motherboard comes with two Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) Dual Inline Memory Module

(DIMM) sockets. A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR2 DIMM but

is notched differently to prevent installation on a DDR2 DIMM socket. DDR3 modules are

developed for better performance with less power consumption.
The figure below illustrates the location of the DDR3 DIMM sockets:
