MEMORY

NOTE: Memory modules should be installed in pairs of matched memory size, speed, and technology. If the memory modules are not installed in matched pairs, the computer will continue to operate, but with a slight reduction in performance. The entire 16GB memory range is available to 64-bit operating systems.

1To fully utilize 4GB or more of memory requires a 64-bit enabled processor and 64-bit operating system. With 32-bit OS, the total amount of available memory will be less than 4GB. The amount less depends on the actual system configuration.

21600MHz memory will only perform as 1600MHz memory when 3rd generation CPUs are used. It will perform as 1333MHz memory if 2nd generation i3 2130, i3 2125, i3 2120, G860, G850 CPUs are installed in the system. It will perform as 1066MHz memory if 2nd generation G640, G630, G540, G530, G460 CPUs are installed in the system.
