Desktop Board Features Main Memory NOTE To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel ® SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. If your memory modules do not support SPD, you will see a notification to this effect on the screen at power up. The BIOS will attempt to configure the memory controller for normal operation. The Desktop Board has two DIMM sockets that support the memory features listed below: • DDR3 SDRAM DIMMs with the option in the BIOS setup to raise the voltage to support higher performance DDR3 SDRAM DIMMs • Support for: ⎯ Non-ECC DDR3 1333 (overclocking required)/1060/800 MHz memory Note: DDR3-1333 memory operates at 1066 MHz by default until manually overclocked through the system BIOS. CAUTION Altering PC memory frequency, voltage and/or latency may: (i) reduce system stability and useful life of the system, memory and processor; (ii) cause the processor and other system components to fail; (iii) cause reductions in system performance; (iv) cause additional heat or other damage; and (v) affect system data integrity. Intel has not tested, and does not warranty, the operation of the memory beyond its specifications. Intel assumes no responsibility that the memory, including if used with altered clock frequencies and/or voltages, will be fit for any particular purpose. Check with the memory manufacturer for warranty and additional details. ⎯ Serial Presence Detect (SPD) memory only ⎯ Unbuffered, non-registered single- or double-sided DIMMs ⎯ Memory configurations listed below: • Up to 2.0 GB utilizing 512 Mb, 1 Gb, or 2 Gb technology • Up to 4.0 GB utilizing 512 Mb or 1 Gb technology • 4 GB DIMMs are not supported. • A minimum of 512 MB of total memory is required 13
