• AMDRyzen™processorssupportECCandnon-ECCun-bufferedmemory.
• AMD7thGenA-series/Athlon™processorssupportnon-ECCun-bufferedmemory.
• YoumayinstallvaryingmemorysizesinChannelAandChannelB.Thesystem
mapsthetotalsizeofthelower-sizedchannelforthedual-channelconguration.Any
excessmemoryfromthehigher-sizedchannelisthenmappedforsingle-channel
operation.
• ThismotherboarddoesnotsupportDIMMsmadeupof512Mb(64MB)chipsorless
(MemorychipcapacitycountsinMegabit,8Megabit/Mb=1Megabyte/MB).
• ThedefaultmemoryoperationfrequencyisdependentonitsSerialPresenceDetect

Underthedefaultstate,somememorymodulesforoverclockingmayoperateata

• Forsystemstability,useamoreefcientmemorycoolingsystemtosupportafull

• AlwaysinstalltheDIMMSwiththesameCASLatency.Foranoptimumcompatibility,
werecommendthatyouinstallmemorymodulesofthesameversionordatacode
(D/C)fromthesamevendor.Checkwiththevendortogetthecorrectmemory
