Intel Desktop Board D945GNT/D945GTP Product Guide

Installing and Removing Memory

NOTE

To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel SDRAM memory specifications, the boards require DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. You can access the PC Serial Presence Detect Specification at: http://www.intel.com/technology/memory/ddr/specs/dda18c32_64_128x72ag_a.pdf

The desktop board has four 240-pin DDR2 DIMM sockets arranged as DIMM 0 (blue) and DIMM 1 (black) in both Channel A and Channel B.

Guidelines for Dual Channel Memory Configuration

Before installing DIMMs, read and follow these guidelines for dual channel configuration.

Two or Four DIMMs

Install a matched pair of DIMMs equal in speed and size in DIMM 0 (blue) of both channels A and B (see Figure 14).

Channel A

1 GB, 533 MHz

Channel B

1 GB, 533 MHz

DIMM 0 DIMM 1

DIMM 0 DIMM 1

If additional memory is to be used, install another matched pair of DIMMs in DIMM 1 (black) in both channels A and B (see Figure 15).

Channel A

256 MB, 533 MHz
