Installing Memory Modules
This motherboard accommodates two 240-pin DIMM sockets (Dual Inline
Memory Module) for unbuffered
DDR2 800
/667/533/400 memory modules
(Double Data Rate SDRAM), and maximum 16 GB installed memory.
Note
: To achieve better airflow rates and heat dissipation, we suggest
that you use a high quality fan with 4800 rpm at least. CPU fan and
heatsink installation procedures may vary with the type of CPU fan/
heatsink supplied. The form and size of fan/heatsink may also vary.
