Description
800MHz 1066MHz 1333MHz
RDIMM 1 Y Y Y 1N SR or DR
All RDIMMs run at the fastest
common frequency of process
IMCs and installed memory:
800MHz, 1066MHz, or 133MH
RDIMM 1 Y
N 1N QR only
All RDIMMs run at 800MHz or
1066MHz when Quad-Rank
RDIMM is installed in any
channel.
RDIMM 2 Y Y N 1N SR or DR
All RDIMMs run at 800MHz or
1066MHz when two RDIMMs
(Single-Rank or Dual-Rank) ar
installed in the same channel.
RDIMM 2 Y N N 1N QR only
All RDIMMs run at 800MHz wh
two RDIMMs (either or both ar
Quad-Rank RDIMMs) are
installed in the same channel.
UDIMM
w/ or w/o
ECC
1 Y Y Y 1N SR or DR
All UDIMMs run at the fastest
common frequency of process
IMCs and installed memory:
800MHz, 1066MHz, or
1333MHz.
UDIMM
w/ or w/o
ECC
2 Y Y N 2N SR or DR
All UDIMMs run at 800MHz or
1066MHz when two UDIMMs
(Single- or Dual-Rank) are
installed in the same channel.
1N: One clock cycle for the DRAM commands arrive at the DIMMs to execute.
2N: Two clock cycles for the DRAM commands arrive at the DIMMs to execute.
