CPU fan/heatsink supplied. The form and size of fan/heatsink may also
vary.
Installing Memory Modules
This mainboard accommodates two 184-pin 2.5V unbuffered Double Data
Rate (DDR) SDRAM memory modules. Each module can be installed with 32
MB to 1 GB of memory; total memory capacity is 2GB.
Note:
Double Data Rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM) doubles the rate to 1.6 GBps
and 2.1 GBps. DDR SDRAM uses additional power and ground lines and
requires 184-pin DIMM modules rather than the 168-pin DIMMs used by
SDRAM.
Do not remove any memory module from its antistatic packaging until
you are ready to install it on the mainboard. Handle the modules only by
their edges. Do not touch the components or metal parts. Always wear
a grounding strap when you handle the modules.
Installation Procedure
Refer to the following to install the memory modules.
1. This mainboard supports unbuffered DDR SDRAM only. Do not attempt to
insert any other type of DDR SDRAM into the slots.
2. Push the latches on each side of the DIMM slot down.
3. Align the memory module with
the slot. The DIMM slots are
keyed with notches and the
DIMMs are keyed with cutouts
so that they can only be
installed correctly.
