Intel Desktop Board D925XCV/D925XBC Technical Product Specification
1.6 System Memory
The boards have four DIMM sockets and support the following memory features:
1.8 V (only) DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs
Unbuffered, single-sided or double-sided DIMMs with the following restriction:
Double-sided DIMMS with x16 organization are not supported.
4 GB maximum total system memory. Refer to Section 2.2.1 on page 55 for information on the
total amount of addressable memory.
Minimum total system memory: 128 MB
Non-ECC DIMMs
Serial Presence Detect
DDR2 533 MHz or DDR2 400 MHz SDRAM DIMMs
NOTES
Remove the PCI Express x16 video card before installing or upgrading memory to avoid
interference with the memory retention mechanism.
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board
should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure.
This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to accurately configure
memory settings for optimum performance. If non-SPD memory is installed, the BIOS will
attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but performance and reliability may be
impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the determined frequency.
Table 6 lists the supported DIMM configurations.
