You may install 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB and 4GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR3 DIMMs
into the DIMM sockets.
You may install varying memory sizes in Channel A and Channel B. The
system maps the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel
conguration. Any excess memory from the higher-sized channel is then
mapped for single-channel operation.
It recommended that to install the memory module from orange slots for
better overclocking capability.
Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum compatibility,
it is recommended that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor.
When installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows 32-bit
operation system may only recognize less than 3GB. Hence, a total installed
memory of less than 3GB is recommended.
This motherboard does not support memory modules made up of 256 Mb
chips.
Due to chipset limitation, this motherboard can only support up to 16 GB
on the operating systems listed below. You may install a maximum of 4 GB
DIMMs on each slot.
The default memory operation frequency is dependent on its SPD. Under
the default state, some memory modules for overclocking may operate at a
lower frequency than the vendor-marked value. To operate at the vendor-
marked or at a higher frequency, see section
3.4 Ai Tweaker menu
for
manual memory frequency adjustment.
The memory modules may require a better cooling system to work stably
under full loading (4 DIMMs) or overclocking setting.
