Memory confgurations
You may install 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, and 4GB unbuffered ECC and non-ECC DDR3 DIMMs
into the DIMM sockets.
•
You may install varying memory sizes in Channel A and Channel B. The system maps
the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel conFguration. Any excess
memory from the higher-sized channel is then mapped for single-channel operation.
•
We recommend that you install the memory modules from the blue slots for better
overclocking capability.
•
Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum compatibility, we
recommend that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor.
•
AMD AM3 100 and 200 Series CPU support up to DDR3 1066 MHz.
•
When overclocking, some AMD CPU models may not support DDR3 1600 MHz or
higher frequency DIMMs.
•
Due to the memory address limitation on 32-bit Windows
®
OS, when you install 4GB
or more memory on the motherboard, the actual usable memory for the OS can be
about 3GB or less. For effective use of memory, we recommend that you do any of the
following:
-
Install a maximum of 3GB system memory if you are using a 32-bit Windows
®
OS.
-
Use a 64-bit Windows
®
OS if you want to install 4GB or more memory on the
motherboard.
•
This motherboard does not support DIMMs made up of 256 megabits (Mb) chips or less.
