MS-7037 M-ATX Mainboard Memory The mainboard provides 2 slots for 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMM (Double InLine Memory Module) modules and supports the memory size up to 1GB. You can install DDR400/DDR333/DDR266 modules on the DDR DIMM slots (DDR 1~2).

DIMM1 DIMM2 Introduction to DDR SDRAM DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM, but doubles the rate by transferring data twice per cycle. It uses 2.5 volts as opposed to 3.3 volts used in SDR SDRAM, and requires 184-pin DIMM modules rather than 168-pin DIMM modules used by SDR SDRAM.

Introduction to DDR SDRAM
DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM, but doubles
the rate by transferring data twice per cycle.
It uses 2.5 volts as opposed to 3.3 volts
used in SDR SDRAM, and requires 184-pin DIMM modules rather than 168-pin DIMM
modules used by SDR SDRAM.
High memory bandwidth makes DDR an ideal solution
for high performance PC, workstations and servers.
