Overview

The motherboard comes with two Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) Dual Inline Memory Modules

(DIMM) sockets.

A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR2 DIMM but is notched

differently to prevent installation on a DDR2 DIMM socket. DDR3 modules are developed for

better performance with less power consumption.

The figure illustrates the location of the DDR3 DIMM sockets:
