Processor
The board supports 4th generation Intel Core processors. Other processors may be
supported in the future. This board supports processors with a maximum wattage of
95 W Thermal Design Power (TDP).
NOTE
This board has specific requirements for providing power to the processor. Additional
power required will depend on configurations chosen by the integrator.
System Memory
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board
should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data
structure. This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to
accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance. If non-SPD memory
is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but
performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the
determined frequency.
The Desktop Board has
four
240-pin DDR3 u-DIMM sockets with gold-plated contacts.
These sockets support:
Support for DDR3 1066/1333/1600 MHz SO-DIMMs (DDR3 1333 MHz and DDR3 1600
MHz SO-DIMMs operate at 1066 MHz only)
Serial Presence Detect (SPD) memory only
Non-ECC memory
Up to 32 GB of memory
