Installing a DIMM

1-8

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 configuration. Any

excess memory from the higher-sized channel is then mapped for single-channel

operation.

Due to the memory address limitation on 32-bit Windows

or more memory on the motherboard, the actual usable memory for the OS can be

about 3GB or less. For effective use of memory, we recommend that you do any of the

following:

Use a maximum of 3 GB system memory if you are using a 32-bit Windows

I nstall a 64-bit Windows

motherboard.

F or more details, refer to the Microsoft

com/kb/929605/en-us.

The default memory operation frequency is dependent on its Serial Presence Detect

(SPD), which is the standard way of accessing information from a memory module.

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, refer to section 2.5 Ai Tweaker menu for manual memory

frequency adjustment.

Always install the DIMMS with the same CAS Latency. For an optimum compatibility,

we recommend that you install memory modules of the same version or data code

(D/C) from the same vendor. Check with the vendor to get the correct memory

modules.
