You may install single or double-sided 64 MB, 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, and 1 GB DDR DIMMs to the sockets.

1.DIMMs with more than 8 devices on each side of the module are not supported.

2.Make sure the memory frequency and bus frequency setting in the BIOS are the same or set to [Auto] ensure system stability.

4.For optimum compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules from qualified vendors. See the next page for a list of qualified DDR333 DIMM vendors.
