The default DIMM frequency depends on its Serial Presence Detect SPD

Page 47 highlights

• 4 DIMM slots: 1 DIMM: Supports one module inserted in any slot as single-channel memory configuration. 2 DIMMs: Support one pair of modules inserted into either the red slots or the gray slots as one pair of dual-channel memory configuration. 4 DIMMs: Support 4 modules inserted into both the red and gray slots as two pairs of dual-channel memory configuration. • When installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows 32bit operating system may only recognize less than 3GB. Hence, a total installed memory of less than 3GB is recommended. • It is recommended to install the memory modules from the red slots for better overclocking capacity. • The default DIMM frequency depends on its Serial Presence Detect (SPD), which is the standard way of accessing information from a memory module. Under the default state, some memory modules for overclocking may operate at a lower frequency than the vendor-marked value. ASUS MAXIMUS IV GENE-Z/GEN3 2-15

4 DIMM slots:
1 DIMM: Supports one module inserted in any slot as single-channel
memory configuration.
2 DIMMs: Support one pair of modules inserted into either the red slots or
the gray slots as one pair of dual-channel memory configuration.
4 DIMMs: Support 4 modules inserted into both the red and gray slots as
two pairs of dual-channel memory configuration.
When installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows 32-
bit operating system may only recognize less than 3GB. Hence, a total
installed memory of less than 3GB is recommended.
It is recommended to install the memory modules from the red slots for
better overclocking capacity.
The default DIMM frequency depends on its Serial Presence Detect (SPD),
which is the standard way of accessing information from a memory module.
Under the default state, some memory modules for overclocking may
operate at a lower frequency than the vendor-marked value.
