The motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) Dual Inline Memory Modules 

(DIMM) sockets. 

A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR2 DIMM but is notched 

differently to prevent installation on a DDR2 DIMM socket. DDR3 modules are developed for 

better performance with less power consumption.

The figure illustrates the location of the DDR3 DIMM sockets: 

Channel A

DIMM_A1 and DIMM_A2

Channel B

DIMM_B1 and DIMM_B2

DIMM_A1 DIMM_A2

DIMM_B1 DIMM_B2

One DIMM:
We recommend you install one memory module in either of the blue slots (DIMM_A2 or 

DIMM_B2) to get better performance.
Two DIMMs (dual-channel operation):
