DIMM_A1 DIMM_A2 DIMM_B1 DIMM_B2 P4P800-VM ® P4P800-VM 184-Pin DDR DIMM Sockets 1.9.1 Memory configurations You may install 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB DDR DIMMs into the DIMM sockets using the memory configurations in this section. Important notes 1. Installing DDR DIMMs other than the recommended configurations may cause memory sizing error or system boot failure. Use any of the recommended configurations in Table 1. In dual-channel configurations, install only identical (the same type and size) DDR DIMM pairs for each channel. Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor. Make sure that the memory frequency matches the CPU FSB (Front Side Bus). Refer to Table 2. DIMMs installed into any three sockets will function in single-channel mode. When all four sockets are populated with 1GB DIMMs (total 4GB), the system may detect only 3+GB (a little less than 4GB) due to ICH5 resource allocation. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
