Each processor has 4 memory channels, with each channel supporting up to 3 DIMMs. The M620 is available in the following memory capacity options:  24-DIMM capacity: uses a 57mm heatsink and is recommended for use with processors of 95W or less  20-DIMM capacity: uses a 77mm heatsink for cooling efficiency and is recommended for use with 115W and 130W processors  16-DIMM capacity: uses a 97mm heatsink to support the higher ambient temperatures of fresh air configurations The M620 supports a flexible memory configuration according to the following basic rules:  Speed: If DIMMs of different speeds are mixed, all channels across all processors operate at the slowest DIMM's common frequency.  DIMM type: Only one type of DIMM is allowed per system: UDIMM, RDIMM, or LRDIMM. These types cannot be mixed. The following additional memory population guidelines apply to the M620:

The M620 server supports flexible memory configurations ranging from capacities of 2GB to 768GB
(using 32GB DIMMs), and up to 12 DIMMs per processor (up to 24 DIMMs in a dual-processor
configuration). Each processor has 4 memory channels, with each channel supporting up to 3
DIMMs.
The M620 is available in the following memory capacity options:
24-DIMM capacity: uses a 57mm heatsink and is recommended for use with processors of 95W
or less
20-DIMM capacity:
uses a 77mm heatsink for cooling efficiency and is recommended for use
with 115W and 130W processors
16-DIMM capacity: uses a 97mm heatsink to support the higher ambient temperatures of fresh
air configurations
The M620 supports a flexible memory configuration according to the following basic rules:
Speed: If DIMMs of different speeds are mixed, all channels across all processors operate at the
slowest DIMM’s common frequency.
DIMM type: Only one type of DIMM is allowed per system: UDIMM, RDIMM, or LRDIMM.
These
types cannot be mixed.
The following additional memory population guidelines apply to the M620:
