AIMB-502 User Manual 10
1.9 System Memory
AIMB-502 has four 240-pin memory sockets for 1333/1600 MHz memory modules
with maximum capacity of 32 GB (Maximum 8 GB for each DIMM). AIMB-502QG2
supports only non-ECC DDR3 memory modules and do not support registered
DIMMs (RDIMMs)
1.10 Memory Installation Procedures
To install DIMMs, first make sure the two handles of the DIMM socket are in the
“open” position, i.e., the handles lean outward. Slowly slide the DIMM module along
the plastic guides on both ends of the socket. Then firmly but gently (avoid pushing
down too hard) press the DIMM module well down into the socket, until you hear a
click when the two handles have automatically locked the memory module into the
correct position of the DIMM socket. To remove the memory module, just push both
handles outward, and the memory module will be ejected by the mechanism.
1.11 Cache Memory
The AIMB-502 supports a CPU with one of the following built-in full speed L3 caches:
8MB for Intel Xeon E3 1275v2
8MB for Intel Xeon E3 1275
8MB for Intel Xeon E3 1225v2
6MB for Intel Xeon E3 1225
8MB for Intel Core i7 3770
8MB for Intel Core i7 2600
6MB for Intel Core i5 3550S
6MB for Intel Core i5 2400
3MB for Intel Core i3 3220
3MB for Intel Core 3120
3MB for Intel Pentium G850
2MB for Intel Celeron G540
The built-in second-level cache in the processor yields much higher performance
than conventional external cache memories.
1.12 Processor Installation
The AIMB-502 is designed for LGA1155, Intel Xeon and Intel Core i7/Core i5/Core i3/
Pentium/Celeron processor.
Note! Because AIMB-502 supports Intel Active Management Technology 8.0
(iAMT 8.0) which utilizes some memory space of channel 0, it's sug-
gested that the user should not leave channel 0 DIMM slots (DIMMA1
and DIMMA2) empty, or it may cause some system abnormality.
