NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be
populated with SO-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
SO-DIMMs may not function under the determined frequency.
NOTE
Intel NUC 13 Extreme Kits support only 4 Gb, 8 Gb, and 16 Gb memory technologies (also referred
to as “SDRAM density”).
