3-6 Understanding System Features
The processor subsystem integrates a 32-KB internal cache
and a 512-KB secondary cache and cache controller to
improve system performance. An integrated math
coprocessor increases the speed of floating point operations.
System Memory
The system comes in configurations starting with a
minimum of 32 MB of system memory. Three 168-pin
sockets on the system board support up to 384 MB of high-
speed memory using industry-standard, gold-plated, 168-pin
dual in-line memory modules (DIMM).
NOTE
You can install approved vendor list (AVL),
10-ns or 12-ns, Synchronous Dynamic Random
Access Memory (SDRAM) DIMMs into the memory
sockets.
Single DIMMs can be installed in any order and any
combination that is supported and available. The memory
type, size, and speed can vary between sockets. The system
automatically detects the memory; no jumper settings are
required. The DIMMS can be either single- or double-sided.
The minimum allowable memory size for the system is
16 MB, and the maximum is 384 MB.
See Chapter 5 for DIMM option installation procedures.
