Installing System Memory
Your B360 Micro Gaming has (2) 288-pin
slots for DDR4 memory. These slots support
4GB, 8GB and 16GB DDR4 DIMMs. There
must be at least one memory slot populated
for the board to boot and operate.
The Intel
®
B360 chipset supports Dual-
Channel DDR4 memory, a maximum of
32GB and up to 2667MHz (OC) for Coffee
Lake-S. It is recommended to always use a 2
DIMM Dual Channel kit for the B360.
Fill the memory slots in the following
order: 1, then 2. See chart to the right:
Use the following procedure to install
memory DIMMs. Note that there is a
key notch near the center of the DIMM slots. This matches the gap on
a DDR4 DIMM to ensure the memory is installed properly, and to prevent the
incorrect installation of memory.
1.
Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the top-side module clips outward.
2.
Align the memory module to the DIMM slot, insert the module
vertically into the slot, and press straight down to fully seat the module.
The plastic clips at top side of the DIMM slot should automatically
lock the DIMM into the connector.
Note:
The memory controllers on Coffee Lake-S CPUs run at a default frequency of
2400MHz. Achieving memory speeds of 2667MHz may require using the
XMP profile or manual setting of the memory timings, frequency and
voltages. Using an XMP profile for speeds of 2667MHz is considered
overclocking.
Refer to the memory manufacturer specifications for the recommended
memory timings and settings.
