Desktop Board Features

Processor
Intel Desktop Board D2700DC includes a passively-cooled, dual-core Intel Atom
processor with integrated graphics and memory controller. The processor is soldered
to the Desktop Board and is not customer upgradeable.
NOTE
The board is designed to be passively cooled in a properly ventilated chassis. Chassis
venting locations are recommended above the processor heatsink area for maximum
heat dissipation effectiveness.
System Memory
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel
®
SDRAM memory specifications, the
board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD)
data structure. If your memory modules do not support SPD, you will see a
notification to this effect on the screen at power up. The BIOS will attempt to
configure the memory controller for normal operation.
The Desktop Board has two 204-pin DDR3 SO-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 4 GB of memory
