- Recommend that you install memory modules of the same version or date code d c from the same vendor check with the retailer to get the correct memory modules 20
- 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 to operate at the vendor marked or at a higher frequency refer to section 2 ai tweaker menu for manual memory frequency adjustment 20
- The default memory operation frequency is dependent on its serial presence detect 20
- The total size of the lower sized channel for the dual channel configuration any excess memory from the higher sized channel is then mapped for single channel operation 20
- This motherboard does not support dimms made up of 512mb 64mb chips or less 20
- Timing or the loaded x m p profile is not the jedec memory standard the stability and compatibility of these memory modules depend on the cpu s capabilities and other installed devices 20
