Memory configurations
You may install any DDR DIMMs with 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB
densities into the DIMM sockets.
1.
DDR DIMM sockets 2 and 3 share the same rows, so if you install a
double-sided DIMM into DIMM2 socket, you must leave DIMM3 socket
empty.
2.
You may install single-sided DIMMs into DIMM2 and DIMM3 sockets at the
same time but neither one can be x16 DDR module.
3.
Double-sided x16 DDR DIMMs are not supported on this motherboard.
Use only the following combinations to install DDR DIMMs. Otherwise, the
system may not boot up.
