Installing System Memory (DIMMs) 

Your new motherboard has six 240-pin slots for DDR3 memory. These slots 
support 256 MB, 512 MB, 1GB, 2GB, 4GB DDR3 technologies. There must be 
at least one memory bank populated to ensure normal operation. Use the 
following the recommendations for installing memory.  (See Figure 1 on page 
14 for the location of the memory slots.) 

‰ 

: If using 1 DIMM (Single Channel), install into: DIMM slot 1.  

‰ 

: If using 2 DIMMs (Dual Channel), install into: 

. If using 4 DIMMs (Dual Channel), install into: 

. 

‰ 

: If using 3 DIMMs (Triple Channel), install into: DIMM 

. 

: If using more than 4 DIMMs, use: DIMM slots 2, 1, 4, and 3 

then proceed to occupy the following DIMM slots in this order: 5 and 6. 

 

Use the following procedure to install memory DIMMs. Note that there is only 
one gap near the center of the DIMM slot. This slot matches the slot on the 
memory DIMM to ensure the component is installed properly.  

Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the module clips outward. 

Align the memory module to the DIMM slot, and insert the module vertically 

into the DIMM slot. The plastic clips at both sides of the DIMM slot 
automatically lock the DIMM into the connector.
