Memory Support
The C7Z97-OCE supports up to 32GB of Unbuffered (UDIMM) DDR3 non-ECC
1600/1333/1066 MHz in 4 memor y slots. Populating these DIMM modules
with a pair of memory modules of the same type and same size will result in
interleaved memory, which will improve memory performance.
Note: For memory optimization, use only DIMM modules that have been validated by Supermicro.
For the latest memory updates, please refer to our website at http://www.supermicro.com/
products/motherboard.

Memory Population Guidelines
When installing memory modules, the DIMM slots should be populated in the fol-
lowing order: DIMMA2, DIMMB2, then DIMMA1, DIMMB1.
• Always use DDR3 DIMM modules of the same size, type and speed.
• Mixed DIMM speeds can be installed. However, all DIMMs will run at the speed
of the slowest DIMM.
Recommended Population (Balanced)

Note: Up to 32GB of memory are supported. See chapter 2 of the User Manual for
complete memory population information.
