System Memory
The board has two DIMM sockets and supports the following memory features:
1.8 V DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs with gold plated contacts, with the option to raise the
voltage to support higher performance DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs
Dual channel interleaved mode support
Unbuffered, single-sided or double-sided DIMMs with the following restriction:
Double-sided DIMMs with x16 organization are not supported.
4 GB maximum total system memory.
Refer to Section 2.1.1 on page 39 for
information on the total amount of addressable memory.
Minimum total system memory:
512 MB
Non-ECC DIMMs
Serial Presence Detect
DDR2 667 MHz or DDR2 800 MHz SDRAM DIMMs
DDR2 667 MHz DIMMs with SPD timings of only 5-5-5 (tCL-tRCD-tRP)
DDR2 800 MHz DIMMs with SPD timings of only 5-5-5 or 6-6-6 (tCL-tRCD-tRP)

NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board
should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data
structure.
This enables the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to
accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance.
If non-SPD memory
is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but
performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the
