3. H/W SETUP System Memory 3. HARDWARE SETUP 3.5 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 Access Memory (SDRAM). This chipset does not support ECC. However, ECC memory modules may still be used, but the ECC function will not be available. Install memory in any combination as follows: Location 168-pin DIMM SDRAM DIMM1 (Rows 0&1) Single-Sided/Double-Sided 16, 32, 64, 128MB, or 256MB DIMM2 (Rows 2&3) Single-Sided/Double-Sided 16, 32, 64, 128MB, or 256MB Total System Memory (Max 512MB) Total Memory x1 x1 = NOTE: At the time this User's Manual was written, 256MB DIMM's are only available as Double-Sided registered memory (128Mbit cells). Using 2x2x2 SDRAM can greatly improve the onboard graphics' performance. 3.5.1 General DIMM Notes • This motherboard operates at 100MHz, therefore 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.
