Memory configurations
You may install 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB unbuffered and non‑ECC DDR3 DIMMs into the DIMM sockets.
• You may install varying memory sizes in Channel A and Channel B. The system maps the total size of the
•According to Intel CPU spec, DIMM voltage below 1.65V is recommended to protect the CPU.
•Due to Intel® chipset limitation, DDR3 1600 MHz and higher memory modules on XMP mode will run at the maximum transfer rate of DDR3 1600 MHz.
•Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimal compatibility, we recommend that you install memory modules of the same version or date code (D/C) from the same vendor. Check with the retailer to get the correct memory modules.
•Due to the memory address limitation on

•This motherboard does not support DIMMs made up of 512Mb (64MB) chips or less (Memory chip capacity counts in Megabit, 8 Megabit/Mb = 1 Megabyte/MB).
• | The default memory operation frequency is dependent on its Serial Presence Detect | ||
| (SPD), which is the standard way of accessing information from a memory module. | ||
| Under the default state, some memory modules for overclocking may operate at a | ||

• | For system stability, use a more efficient memory cooling system to support a full | ||
| memory load (4 DIMMs) or overclocking condition. | ||
• | ASUS exclusively provides hyper DIMM support function. | ||
• | Hyper DIMM support is subject to the physical characteristics of individual CPUs. Load |
