Installing and Removing DIMMS
CAUTION
To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel SDRAM memory specification addendums, the board
requires DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. You can access the
PC Serial Presence Detect Specification at:
http://www.intel.com/technology/memory/pcsdram/spec/
The desktop board has two DIMM sockets arranged as DIMM 0 and DIMM 1, as shown in
Figure 7. If installing a single DIMM, install it in DIMM 0.
Refer to the Main Memory heading on page 14 for memory requirements.
