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.
• ThedefaultmemoryoperationfrequencyisdependentonitsSerialPresenceDetect
(SPD),whichisthestandardwayofaccessinginformationfromamemorymodule.
Underthedefaultstate,somememorymodulesforoverclockingmayoperateata
lowerfrequencythanthevendor-markedvalue.
• Forsystemstability,useamoreefcientmemorycoolingsystemtosupportafull
memoryload(4DIMMs)oroverclockingcondition.
• ForDRAMcompatibilityandperformance,pleaseuseA2slotforpriority1.
• Memorymoduleswithmemoryfrequencyhigherthan2133MHzandtheir

ThestabilityandcompatibilityofthememorymodulesdependontheCPU’s
capabilitiesandotherinstalleddevices.
• 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
modules.
