®
Installing DDR DIMMs other than the recommended configurations
may cause memory sizing error or system boot failure. Use any of
the recommended configurations in Table 1.
Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum
compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules
from the same vendor. See Table 2 for qualified DDR DIMMs.
Due to chipset limitation, DIMM modules with 128 Mb memory
chips or double-sided x16 memory chips are not supported in this
motherboard.
