Desktop Board Features

Main Memory

NOTE

To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel® SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. If your memory modules do not support SPD, you will see a notification to this effect on the screen at power up. The BIOS will attempt to configure the memory controller for normal operation.

The Desktop Board supports the following memory and interface:

•Four 240-pin Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) SDRAM Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) sockets with gold-plated contacts arranged in two channels

•2133 MHz to 1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM Memory Modules

•Support for single- and dual-channel memory interleaving

•Unbuffered, non-registered single- or double-sided DIMMs with a voltage rating of 1.65 V or less

CAUTION

Using a DIMM with a voltage rating higher than 1.65 V may damage the processor.

•Non-ECC DDR3 memory

•Serial Presence Detect (SPD) memory only

•Up to 32 GB maximum total system memory using 8 GB DIMMs

NOTE

32-bit operating systems are limited to a maximum of 4 GB of memory. These operating systems will report less than 4 GB because of the memory used by add-in graphics cards and other system resources.
