3.5 System Memory

This motherboard uses only Double Data Rate (DDR) Synchronous Dynamic
Random Access Memory (SDRAM) Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMMs).

3.5.1 DDR DIMM Support

DIMMs come in combinations of single or double-sided types ranging through 64MB,
128MB, 256MB, 512MB and 1GB to form a total memory size of 64MB to 3GB.

Each DIMM socket/module is two-sided: each side comprises one “row” of memory.

~ Three (3) sockets are available for 266MHz-PC2100 / 200MHz-
PC1600 unbuffered DDR DIMMs: to form a memory size of 64MB to 3GB.

NOTE: The DDR memory bus runs at the same frequency as the CPU front side bus.

Install memory in any combination as follows:
