3.5.1
General DIMM Notes
•
When this motherboard operates at 100MHz, PC100-compliant modules must be
used because of the strict timing issues involved under this speed.
•
ASUS motherboards support SPD (Serial Presence Detect) DIMMs. This is the
memory of choice for best performance vs. stability.
•
SDRAM chips are generally thinner with higher pin density than EDO (Extended
Data Output) chips.
•
BIOS shows SDRAM memory on bootup screen.
•
Single-sided DIMMs come in 16, 32, 64,128MB; double-sided come in 32, 64,
128, 256MB.

System Memory (DIMM)
NOTE:
No hardware or BIOS setup is required after adding or removing memory.
This motherboard uses only Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMMs). Sockets are
available for
3.3Volt
(power level) unbuffered Synchronous Dynamic Random Ac-
cess Memory (SDRAM) of 16, 32, 64, 128MB, or 256MB.
This chipset does not support ECC. However, ECC memory modules may still be
used, but the ECC function will not be available.
Memory speed setup is recommended through
SDRAM Configuration
in
4.4.1
