Memory Population Guidelines
When installing memory modules, the DIMM slots should be populated in the following
order: DIMM1B, DIMM2B, DIMM1A and DIMM2A.
•
Always use DDR3 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.
•
The motherboard will support one DIMM module or three DIMM modules installed.
For best memory performance, install DIMM modules in pairs.
