Overview
The motherboard comes with twenty-four (24) Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) Dual
Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) sockets.
The figure illustrates the location of the DDR3 DIMM sockets:
2.3.2
Memory Configurations
You may install 1GB/2GB/4GB/8GB/16GB Registerd or 1GB/2GB/4GB Unbuffered
with ECC/Non-ECC DDR3 DIMMs into the DIMM sockets using the memory
configurations in this section.
Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum
compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules from the
same vendor.
For CPU1 configuraton, install DIMMs from the orange slots and in the
order as follows: DIMM_A3 -> DIMM_C3 -> DIMM_B3 -> DIMM_D3.
For CPU1 + CPU2 configuraton, install DIMMs from the orange slots and in
the order as follows: DIMM_A3 -> DIMM_E3 -> DIMM_C3 -> DIMM_G3.
For Quad Ranks DIMMs, you can install only one DIMM for each channel.
