2.6 - Installing the Memory

Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with the motherboard and processor. Only DDR2-667/533 DIMM modules are required. Check the TYAN Web site at: www.tyan.com for details of the type of memory recommended for your motherboard.

The following diagram shows common types of DDR2 memory modules.

Key points to note before installing memory:

Only DDR2-667/533 memory modules are supported.

All installed memory will automatically be detected and no jumpers or settings need changing.

The Tempest i5100X S5375 supports up to 32GB of memory.

All memory must be of the same type and density.

The following chart outlines the suggested rules for populating memory.
