 H67 Express Chipset 
The Intel H67 Express Chipset, consisting of the Intel H67 Platform Controller Hub 
(PCH), provides interfaces to the processor and the USB, SATA, LPC, audio, network, 
display, and PCI Express x1 interfaces.  The Intel H67 PCH is a centralized controller 
for the board’s I/O paths. 
Main Memory 
 
 
NOTE 
To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel 
®
 SDRAM memory specifications, the 
board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) 
data structure.  If your memory modules do not support SPD, you will see a 
notification to this effect on the screen at power up.  The BIOS will attempt to 
configure the memory controller for normal operation.   
The board has four DDR3 DIMM sockets arranged in two channels and supports the 
following memory features: 
•  Two independent memory channels with interleaved mode support 
•  Support for non-ECC, unbuffered, single-sided or double-sided DIMMs with x8 
organization and single-sided DIMMs with x16 organization 
•  32 GB maximum total system memory (with 4 Gb memory technology)   
•  Minimum total system memory:  512 MB  
•  Serial Presence Detect 
•  DDR3 1333 MHz and DDR3 1066 MHz SDRAM DIMMs 
 
 
NOTE 
32-bit operating systems are limited to a maximum of 4 GB of memory.  These 
operating systems will report less than 4 GB because of the memory used by 
add-in graphics cards and other system resources.
