(Note 1) Due to Windows 32-bit operating system limitation, when more than 4 GB of physical memory is
installed, the actual memory size displayed will be less than 4 GB.
(Note 2) To reach DDR3 1866 MHz or above, you must install two memory modules and install them in the
DDR3_3 and DDR3_4 memory sockets.
(Note 3) The PCIEX8_1 slot shares bandwidth with the PCIEX16_1 slot and the PCIEX8_2 slot with
PCIEX16_2. The PCIEX16_1/PCIEX16_2 slot will operate at up to x8 mode when the PCIEX8_1/

GSATA2_6, GSATA2_7, and IDE connectors will become unavailable because they share band-
width with the PCIEX4_2 slot. (Refer to Chapter 2, "Integrated Peripherals" for how to change the
