Removing the Processor
For instructions on how to remove the processor fan heat sink and processor, refer to
the processor installation manual.
Installing and Removing System Memory
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel SDRAM memory specifications, the board
requires DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure.
The desktop board has two 240-pin DDR3 DIMM sockets providing Channel A and
Channel B. For dual-channel performance, install a matched pair of DIMMs equal in
speed and size (see Figure 14).
Figure 14. Dual Channel Memory Configuration Example
NOTE
All other memory configurations will result in single-channel memory operation.
