Dual channel Limited!
1. Dual channel function only supports when 2 DIMM Modules plug in either both DIMM1 &
DIMM2or DIMM3 &DIMM4, or four DIMM Modules plug in DIMM1~DIMM4.
2. DIMM1 & DIMM2, or DIMM3& DIMM4 must be the same type, same size, same frequency
for dual channel function.
Install DDR SDRAM modules to your motherboard is not difficult, you can refer to figure
below to see how to install a 240-Pin DDRII533/DDR2 667/DDR2 800/DDR2
1066SDRAM module.

NOTE!
When you install DIMM module fully into the DIMM socket the eject tab should be locked
into the DIMM module very firmly and fit into its indention on both sides.
WARNING!
For the DDR SDRAM CLOCK is set at 400MHz, use only DDR2 800- compliant DDR2
Modules. When this motherboard operate at 400Mhz, most system will not even boot if
non-compliant modules are used because of the strict timing issues, if your DDR Modules
are not DDR2 800-compliant, set the SDRAM clock to 200MHz to ensure system
stability.
