Intel® Workstation Board S5000XVN TPS Functional Architecture Note: This workstation board supports only fully buffered DDR2 DIMMs (FBDIMMs. See the Intel® Workstation Board S5000XVN Tested Memory List for a list of supported memory for this server board. 3.1.3.3 DIMM Population Rules and Supported DIMM Configurations DIMM population rules depend on the operating mode of the memory controller, which is determined by the number of DIMMs installed. You must populate DIMMs in pairs. DIMM pairs are populated in the following DIMM socket order: ƒ A1 and B1 ƒ C1 and D1 ƒ A2 and B2 ƒ C2 and D2 DIMMs within a given pair must be identical with respect to size, speed, and organization. However, DIMM capacities can be different between different DIMM pairs. For example, a valid mixed DIMM configuration may have 512 MB FBDIMMs installed in DIMM sockets A1 and B1, and 1 GB FBDIMMs installed in DIMM sockets C1 and D1.

Functional Architecture

Revision 1.5

Intel order number: D66403-006

server board.

3.1.3.3

DIMM Population Rules and Supported DIMM Configurations

DIMM population rules depend on the operating mode of the memory controller, which is

determined by the number of DIMMs installed. You must populate DIMMs in pairs. DIMM pairs

are populated in the following DIMM socket order:

A1 and B1

C1 and D1

A2 and B2

C2 and D2

DIMMs within a given pair must be identical with respect to size, speed, and organization.

However, DIMM capacities can be different between different DIMM pairs. For example, a valid

mixed DIMM configuration may have 512 MB FBDIMMs installed in DIMM sockets A1 and B1,

and 1 GB FBDIMMs installed in DIMM sockets C1 and D1.
