Memory configurations

You may install 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR2

DIMMs into the DIMM sockets.

Recommended Memory Configurations

• For dual-channel memory configuration, you may install identical DIMMs in

all two sockets.

• Always use identical DDR2 DIMM pairs for dual-channel model. For

optimum compatibility, we recommend that you obtain memory modules

from the same vendor. Visit the ASUS website (www.asus.com) for the

latest Qualified Vendors List.
