Memory configurations

You may install 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB DDR DIMMs into the
DIMM sockets using the memory configurations in this section.

The following is important information on memory configurations:
1. Installing DDR DIMMs other than the recommended configurations may

cause memory sizing errors or system boot failures. Use any of the
recommended configurations in the following table.

2. In dual-channel configurations, install only identical (the same type and

size) DDR DIMMs for each channel.

3. Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum

compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules
from the same vendor. See the following list of qualified vendors. The
following table lists the PC3200/2700/2100 memory modules that have
been tested and qualified for use with this motherboard.

Note:

1. Use only identical DDR DIMM pairs
2. For dual-channel configuration, you may install identical

DIMMS in all four sockets or install identical DIMM pairs
in DIMM1 and DIMM3 (yellow sockets), and identical DIMM
pairs in DIMM2 and DIMM4 (blue sockets).
