You may install 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB DDR DIMMs into the
DIMM sockets using the memory configurations in this section.
Important notes
1. Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or
other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to
both the motherboard and the components.
2. When installing long AGP cards, it is recommended to install the memory
modules first. Long AGP cards, when installed, may interfere with the
memory sockets.
1. For optimum compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory
modules from the same vendor. See the DDR400 Qualified Vendor List
(QVL) on page 1-10.
2. Make sure that the memory frequency matches the CPU FSB (Front Side
Bus). Refer to Table 1.
3. Always install DIMMs with the same CAS Latency.
4. Double-sided DDR DIMMs with x16 (data bus=16bit) memory chips are not
supported due to chipset limitation.
