Note (Note 1) Due to Windows Vista/XP 32-bit operating system limitation, when more than 4 GB of physical memory is installed, the actual memory size displayed will be less than 4 GB.
(Note 2) To reach DDR3 1866MHz or above, you must install two memory modules and install them in the DDR3_3 and DDR3_4 memory sockets.
(Note 3) Use of a CPU that supports ECC is required if you wish to install ECC memory.
(Note 4) For optimum performance, if only one PCI Express graphics card is to be installed, be sure to install it in the PCIEX16_1 slot; if you are installing two PCI Express graphics cards, it is recommended that you install them in the PCIEX16_1 and PCIEX16_2 slots.
(Note 5) The PCIEX8 slot shares bandwidth with the PCIEX16_2 slot. When PCIEX8 is populated with a PCI Express graphics card, the PCIEX16_2 slot will operate at up to x8 mode.
(Note 6) Whether the CPU/system fan speed control function is supported will depend on the CPU/ system cooler you install.
(Note 7) Available functions in EasyTune may differ by motherboard model.
