Memory Population Guidelines
When installing memory modules, always use DDR4 DIMM modules of the same size, type,
and speed. Mixed DIMM speeds can be installed. However, all DIMMs will run at the speed
of the slowest DIMM.
Depending on which CPU is installed, DIMMs should be installed in the following configurations
for optimized performance:
DIMMA2
DIMMB2
DIMMB1
DIMMA1
DIMMD1
DIMMC1
DIMMC2
DIMMD2
