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

65 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 tw o204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM sockets with gold-plated contacts.
These sockets support:



Support for DDR3 1066/1333/1600 MHz SO-DIMMs
Serial Presence Detect (SPD) memory only
Non-ECC memory
Up to 16 GB of memory
