Chapter 1: Product introduction
This motherboard supports different memory frequencies depending on the CPU
FSB (Front Side Bus) and the type of DDR DIMM.
CPU FSB
DDR DIMM Type
Memory Frequency
800 MHz
PC3200/PC2700*/PC2100
400/333*/266 MHz
533 MHz
PC2700/PC2100

400 MHz
PC2100

*When using 800MHz CPU FSB, PC2700 DDR DIMMs may run only at
320MHz (not 333MHz) due to chipset limitation.
*
For dual-channel configuration (3), you may:
• install identical DIMMs in all four sockets, or
• install identical DIMMs in DIMM_A1 and DIMM_B1 (blue sockets)
and identical DIMMs in DIMM_A2 and DIMM_B2 (black sockets)
