2.5 Memory Configuration
This motherboard must be installed with DIMMs (Dual Inline Memory Modules). The DIMMs
must be 3.3 Volt synchronous DRAM modules (SDRAM). The VIA KT 133 chipset supports
PC100, PC133 and Virtual Channel Memory (VCM). It also supports ECC (Error Checking and
Correcting) modules. You can install memory in any combination of capacities as follows:
168pin DIMM
SDRAM 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512MBytes
SDRAM 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512MBytes
SDRAM 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512MBytes
1.5GBytes (max.)

NOTE: Different types of DRAM modules (eg. PC100 and PC133 DIMMs) should
not be installed on one motherboard at the same time.
