System memory
This motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate 4 (DDR4) Dual Inline Memory Module
(DIMM) sockets. The figure illustrates the location of the DDR4 DIMM sockets:
Channel
Sockets
Channel A
DIMM_A1 & DIMM_A2*
Channel B
DIMM_B1 & DIMM_B2*
•
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.
•
A DDR4 memory module is notched differently from a DDR, DDR2, or DDR3 module.
DO NOT install a DDR, DDR2, or DDR3 memory module to the DDR4 slot.
• 11
th
Gen Intel
®
processors support 2933/2800/2666/2400/2133 natively.
•
For 10
th
Gen Intel
®
processors, only Core™ i9/ i7 processors support
2933/2800/2666/2400/2133 natively, others will run at the maximum transfer rate of
DDR4 2666MHz.
•
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.
•
For system stability, use a more efficient memory cooling system to support a full
memory load.

and
memory frequency support depends on the CPU types.
