Memory Settings details Option System Memory Size System Memory Type System Memory Speed System Memory Voltage Video Memory System Memory Testing Memory Operating Mode Description Specifies the memory size in the system. Specifies the type of memory installed in the system. Specifies the system memory speed. Specifies the system memory voltage. Specifies the amount of video memory. Specifies whether the system memory tests are run during system boot. The two options available are Enabled and Disabled. This option is set to Disabled by default. Specifies the memory operating mode. The options is available are Optimizer Mode, Single Rank Spare Mode, Multi Rank Spare Mode, and Mirror Mode. This option is set to Optimizer Mode, by default. NOTE: The Memory Operating Mode option can have different default and available options depending on the memory configuration of your system. Current State of Memory Operating Mode Node interleaving ADDDC Setting Native tRFC Timing for 16 Gb DIMMs Opportunistic Self-Refresh Correctable Error Logging Specifies the current state of the memory operating mode. Specifies if Non-Uniform Architecture (NUMA) is supported. If this field is set to Enabled, memory interleaving is supported if a symmetric memory configuration is installed. If this field is set to Disabled, the system supports NUMA (asymmetric) memory configurations. This option is Disabled by default. Enables or disables ADDDC Setting feature. When Adaptive Double DRAM Device Correction (ADDDC) is enabled, failing DRAM's are dynamically mapped out. When set to Enabled it can have impact to system performance under certain workloads. This feature is applicable for x4 DIMMs only. This option is set to Enabled by default. Enables 16 Gb density to operate at their programmed Row Refresh Cycle Time (tRFC). Enabling this feature may improve system performance for some configurations. However, enabling this feature has no effect on configurations with 16 Gb 3DC/TSV DIMMs. This option is set to Disabled by default. Enables or disables opportunistic self-refresh feature. This option is set to Disabled by default and is not supported when DCPMM(s) are in the system. Enables or disables logging of correctable memory threshold error. This option is set to Enabled by default. 36 Pre-operating system management applications
