1.7.1 Overview
The motherboard comes with four 240-pin Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) Dual
Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) sockets.
The following figure illustrates the location of the sockets:
1.7.2 Memory Configurations
You may install 256 MB, 512 MB and 1 GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR DIMMs
into the DIMM sockets using the memory configurations in this section.
Installing DDR DIMMs other than the recommended configurations
may cause memory sizing error or system boot failure. Use any of
the recommended configurations in Table 1.
Due to chipset limitation, this motherboard supports a maximum
of 4GB total memory and four (4) ranks per memory channel only.
A warning message appears during POST if the total density of
memory modules installed exceeds the chipset capacity. Excess
memory will not be utilized by the system.
Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum
compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules
from the same vendor.
Due to chipset limitation, DIMM modules with 128 Mb memory
chips or double-sided x16 memory chips are not supported in this
motherboard.
Use only qualified DIMMs modules on this motherboard. Visit the
ASUS website (www.asus.com) for the latest DDR2 Qualified
Vendors List (QVL).
