2.4.2Memory configurations

You may install 1GB, 2GB and 4GB unbuffered and nonECC DDR3 DIMMs into the DIMM sockets.

You may install varying memory sizes in Channel A, Channel B and Channel C. The system maps the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel or triple- channel configuration. Any excess memory from the higher-sized channel is then mapped for single-channel operation.

Due to Intel spec definition, X.M.P. DIMMs and DDR3-1600 are supported for one

DIMM per channel only.

According to Intel CPU spec, DIMMs with voltage requirement over 1.65V may damage the CPU permanently. We recommend you install the DIMMs with the voltage requirement below 1.65V.

Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum compatibility, we recommend that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor.

Due to the memory address limitation on 32-bit Windows OS, when you install 4GB or more memory on the motherboard, the actual usable memory for the OS can be about 3GB or less. For effective use of memory, we recommend that you install a 64-bit Windows OS when having 4GB or more memory installed on the motherboard.

This motherboard does not support DIMMs made up of 256 megabit (Mb) chips or less.

• The default memory operation frequency is dependent on its SPD. Under the default state, some memory modules for overclocking may operate at a lower frequency than the vendor-marked value.

For system stability, use a more efficient memory cooling system to support a full memory load (6 DIMMs) or overclocking condition.
