1.7 System memory
1.7.1 Overview
The motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) Dual Inline Memory Modules
(DIMM) sockets. The gure illustrates the location of the DDR2 DIMM sockets:
Channel Sockets
Channel A DIMM_A1 and DIMM_A2
Channel B DIMM_B1 and DIMM_B2
ASUS P5QL 1-11
DIMM_B1
DIMM_B2
DIMM_A1
DIMM_A2
P5QL
P5QL 240-pin DDR2 DIMM sockets
1.7.2 Memory congurations
You may install 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, and 4GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR2 DIMMs into the
DIMM sockets.
• You may install varying memory sizes in Channel A and Channel B. The system maps
the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel conguration. Any excess
memory from the higher-sized channel is then mapped for the single-channel operation.
• Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum compatibility, it is
recommended that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor.
®
• Due to the memory address limitation on 32-bit Windows
OS, when you install 4GB or
more memory on the motherboard, the actual usable memory for the OS can be about
3GB or less. For effective use of memory, we recommend that you do either of the
following:
®
- Install a maximum of 3GB system memory if you are using a 32-bit Windows
OS.
®
- Use a 64-bit Windows
OS if you want to install 4GB or more memory on
the motherboard.
• This motherboard does not support DIMMs made up of 256 megabits (Mb) chips or less.
®
®
This motherboard supports up to 16GB on Windows
XP Professional x64 and Windows
Vista x64 editions. You may install a maximum of 4GB DIMM on each slot.

1.7.3 Installing a DIMM
Unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other system components.
Failure to do so can cause severe damage to both the motherboard and the components.
2
To install a DIMM:
DDR2 DIMM notch
1. Press the retaining clips outward to
unlock a DDR2 DIMM socket.
2. Align a DIMM on the socket such that
1
the notch on the DIMM matches the
break on the socket.
1
Unlocked retaining clip
A DDR2 DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it ts in only one direction. DO NOT force a
DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the DIMM.
3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the socket
3
until the retaining clips snap back in place
and the DIMM is properly seated.
Locked Retaining Clip
1.7.4 Removing a DIMM
To remove a DIMM:
1. Simultaneously press the retaining clips
outward to unlock the DIMM.
2
Support the DIMM lightly with
your ngers when pressing the
1
retaining clips. The DIMM might
get damaged when it ips out with
extra force.
