2.2 Installing the Memory Modules
This motherboard accommodates two memory module slots, supporting 184-pin
dual channel DDR 266/333/400 SDRAM up to 2GB. You can add 1 or 2 memory
modules to the system at your choice. In the case of adding two memory modules,
please use two verified memory modules of the same manufacturer and

2.2.1 Memory Frequency Table
Memory frequency is subject to CPU Front Side Bus. The following is a reference table:
CPU FSB (MHz) Memory Frequency (MHz) DIMM DDR Code Name
400 266 PC2100
533 266/333 PC2100 / 2700
800 400/320* PC3200 / 2700
*Sometimes when pairing an 800 MHz FSB CPU with PC2700 DIMM DDR SDRAM, the
memory frequency will read 320 MHz instead of 333 MHz due to chipset limitations.
