Important notes on ECC DIMMs

You can use the ECC* DIMMs listed on the QVL, however, it will work only in unbuffered non-ECC mode because the chipset does not support ECC function.

Obtain DDR DIMMs only from ASUS qualified vendors for better system performance. Visit the ASUS website (www.asus.com) for the latest QVL.

1.9.2 Installing a DIMM

Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both the motherboard and the components.

Follow these steps to install a DIMM.

DDR DIMM notch

1.Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing the retaining clips outward.

2.Align a DIMM on the socket such that the notch on the DIMM matches the break on the socket.

3.Firmly insert the DIMM into the socket until the retaining clips snap back inplace and the DIMM is properly seated.
