General memory module installation guidelines
To ensure optimal performance of your system, observe the following general guidelines when configuring your system memory.
If your system's memory configurations fail to observe these guidelines, your system might not boot, stop responding during
memory configuration, or operate with reduced memory. This section provides information on the memory population rules for
single or dual processor system.
The memory bus operate at speeds up to 4800 MT/s depending on the following factors:
● System profile selected (for example, Performance Optimized, or Custom [can be run at high speed or lower])
● Maximum supported DIMM speed of the processors
● Maximum supported speed of the DIMMs
NOTE: MT/s indicates DIMM speed in MegaTransfers per second.
● All DIMMs must be RDIMM DDR5 with the same capacity and width.
○ Mixing different DIMM capacities is not supported.
○ Mixing module types within a memory channel is not supported. All DIMMs populated must be RDIMM.
○ Mixing different widths (x4 & x8) is not supported.
● Populate memory module sockets only if a processor is installed.
○ For single-processor systems, sockets A1 to A12 are available.
■ A minimum of 1 DIMM must be populated for each installed CPU.
○ In Optimizer Mode, the DRAM controllers operate independently in the 64-bit mode and provide optimized memory
performance.

● Populate the sockets with white release tabs.
● Persistent memory will not be supported on Genoa based platforms.
● For best performance, populate all memory channels equally (12 DIMMs per CPU) using identical DIMMs.
