2-4 Install Memory
This motherboard provides
four
240-pin DDR2 DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES
(DIMM) sites for memory expansion available from minimum memory size of 256MB to
maximum memory size of 4.0GB DDR2 SDRAM.

For Dual channel Limited!
1.
Dual channel function only supports when 2 DIMM Modules plug in either both DIMM1
& DIMM3 or DIMM2 &DIMM4, or four DIMM Modules plug in DIMM1~DIMM4.
2.
DIMM1 & DIMM3, or DIMM2 & DIMM4 must be the same type, same size, same
frequency for dual channel function.
Generally installing DDR2 RAM Modules to your motherboard is very easy, you can refer
to figure 2-4 to see what a 240-Pin DDR2 533/DDR2 400 DDR SDRAM module looks like.
NOTE!
When you install DIMM module fully into the DIMM socket the eject tab
should be locked into the DIMM module very firmly and fit into its indention
on both sides.
