CPU Qualified Vendor List
The following table lists the CPUs that have been tested and qualified for use
with this motherboard.
Memory
This motherboard includes four 184-pin slots with 266/333/400 MHz Dual Chan-
nel DDR DRAM interface, You must install at least one memory module to
ensure normal operation. If you install four modules, they must be the same
speed. When all full sockets are populated with 1GB DIMMs (total 4 GB), the
system may detect only 3.5GB (a little less than 4 GB) due to the South Bridge
resource allocation. Mixing memory modules from different manufactures are
not recommended.
Installation of DDR Memory
1. There is only one gap in the center of the DIMM slot, and the memory module
can be fixed in one direction only.
2. Align the memory module to the DIMM slot, and insert the module
vertically into the DIMM slot.
3. The plastic clips at both sides of the DIMM slot will lock automatically.
