The mainboard provides 2 slots for 184-pin, 2.5V unbuffered DDR DIMM

with 4 memory banks. You can install PC1600/PC2100 DDR SDRAM modules

on the DDR DIMM slots (DDR 1~2). To operate properly, at least one DIMM

module must be installed.

Introduction to DDR SDRAM

DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM, but

doubles the rate by transferring data twice per cycle. It uses 2.5 volts as op-

posed to 3.3 volts used in SDR SDRAM, and requires 184-pin DIMM modules

rather than 168-pin DIMM modules used by SDR SDRAM. High memory band-

width makes DDR an ideal solution for high performance PC, workstations and

servers.
