3.5System Memory (DIMM)
NOTE: No hardware or BIOS setup is required after adding or removing memory.This motherboard uses only Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMMs). Sockets are available for 3.3Volt (power level) unbuffered Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM). One side (with memory chips) of the DIMM takes up one row on the motherboard.
Memory speed setup is recommended through SDRAM Configuration in 4.4.1Chip Configuration.Install memory in any combination as follows:DIMM Location |
| Total Memory | |
|
|
|
|
Socket 1 (Rows 0&1) | SDRAM 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512MB | x1 |
|
|
|
|
|
Socket 2 (Rows 2&3) | SDRAM 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512MB | x1 |
|
|
|
|
|
Socket 3 (Rows 4&5) | SDRAM 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512MB | x1 |

CAUTION! If the total installed memory exceeds 512MB, the system will hang during startup.
3.5.1 General DIMM Notes
•For the system CPU bus to operate at 133MHz, use only
•ASUS motherboards support SPD (Serial Presence Detect) DIMMs. This is the memory of choice for best performance vs. stability.
•BIOS shows SDRAM memory on bootup screen.•
