The compatibility with 256MB and Registered DIMM is still under testing and
cannot be guaranteed.
This mainboard supports 3.3v, unbuffered, 4-clock, SDRAM DIMM only.
Buffered, 5V, or 2-clock SDRAM DIMMs should not be used.
Due to loading anomalies, using DIMM with an 'n x 4' DRAM base on this
mainboard is not recommended. For example, a DIMM that uses sixteen
16Mb x 4 devices should not be used.
2-5 Main Memory Configuration
The DRAM memory system consists of three banks and the memory size ranges from
16~384 MBytes. If you only use one bank it does not matter which one you use and if
you use two or more banks, it does not matter which bank you install first.
