2.4 System memory 2.4.1 Overview The motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) sockets. A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR2 DIMM but is notched differently to prevent installation on a DDR2 DIMM socket. DDR3 modules are developed for better performance with less power consumption. The figure illustrates the location of the DDR3 DIMM sockets: ® DIMM_A1 DIMM_A2 DIMM_B1 DIMM_B2 P5E3 DELUXE P5E3 DELUXE/WiFi-AP 240-pin DDR3 DIMM sockets Channel Channel A Channel B Sockets DIMM_A1 and DIMM_A2 DIMM_B1 and DIMM_B2 2.4.2 Memory configurations You may install 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB unbuffered ECC, non‑ECC DDR3 DIMMs into the DIMM sockets.
