The following figure illustrates the location of the sockets: DIMM_A1 DIMM_A2 DIMM_B1 DIMM_B2 ® P5P800 P5P800 184-Pin DDR DIMM Sockets • Use the blue DIMM slots first. • Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both the motherboard and the components. 2.4.2 Memory configurations You may install 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB DDR DIMMs into the DIMM sockets using the memory configurations in this section. Important notes 1. For optimum compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor. See the DDR400 Qualified Vendor List (QVL) on page 2-14. 2. Make sure that the memory frequency matches the CPU FSB (Front Side Bus). Refer to the M e m o r y f r e q u e n c y / C P U F S B s y n c h r o n i z a t i o n table on page 2-14. 3. Always install DIMMs with the same CAS Latency. 4. Double-sided DDR DIMMs with x 1 6 (data bus=16bit) memory chips are not supported due to chipset limitation. ASUS P5P800 2-13
