abit NI8 SLI Manual Do Utilizador

This motherboard provides four 240-pin DIMM slots for Single/Dual Channel DDR2 667 memory 
modules with memory expansion size up to 8GB. 

     

 

•  To reach the optimum performance in dual-channel configurations, install identical DDR2 DIMM 

pairs for each channel. 

•  Install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. To reach the optimum compatibility, obtain memory 

modules from the same vendor. 

•  Due to chipset resource allocation, the system may detect less than 4GB of system memory in the 

installation of four 1GB DDR2 memory modules. 

•  Due to chipset limitation, 128MB DIMM modules or double-sided x16 memory chips are not 

supported. 

 

There are several methods of different DDR2 configurations depending on how the DIMMs are populated 
on each system memory channel: 

•  [Single Channel]: only one channel is populated.
