Memory and Microprocessor Configuration

For higher system speed or greater throughput, you can upgrade SDRAM memory
by replacing DIMMs with those of greater size.

When configuring or upgrading SDRAM, observe the following rules:

Each DIMM must be a 168-pin unbuffered version and have a frequency of
100 MHz.

All DIMMs must be of equal size if they are in the same bank.

5.1 Configuring SDRAM Memory

Although not an exhaustive list, Table 5–1 lists the tested SDRAM memory
configurations available.

For a list of vendors who supply components and accessories for the AlphaPC
164LX, see Appendix A.

Refer to Figure 2–1 for DIMM connector locations.
