1.2.3System memory
This motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) sockets. A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR2 DIMM but is notched differently to prevent installation on a DDR2 DIMM socket. DDR3 modules are developed for better performance with less power consumption. The figure illustrates the location of the DDR3 DIMM sockets:
DIMM_A1 DIMM_A2
DIMM_B1 DIMM_B2
We recommend that you install the memory modules from the blue slots for better overclocking ability.
