You may install 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, and 1 GB unbuffered

ECC/non-ECC DDR DIMMs into the DIMM sockets using the memory

configurations in this section.

• Installing DDR DIMMs other than the recommended configurations

may cause memory sizing error or system boot failure. Use any of

the recommended configurations on the next page.

• Install only identical (the same type and size) DDR DIMM pairs for

dual channel.

• Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum

compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules

from the same vendor.

• Due to chipset limitation, this motherboard does not support DIMM

modules with less than or equal to 128 Mb memory chips.
