2.3.2 Supported Memory
The Intel
®
5000 MCH supports single-channel DIMM operation in which only one FBDIMM is
installed in DIMM socket A1. Population in other DIMM banks is not supported for single-
channel operation.
The server and workstation boards provide the maximum memory capacities outlined in Table
1, based on the number of DIMM slots provided and maximum supported memory loads by the
chipset. The minimum memory supported with the system running in single-channel memory
mode is 512 MB, using a single DIMM in the DIMM A1 socket.
Note: All Intel memory qualification is done by testing with complete memory banks of identical
memory modules in all DIMM sockets. Memory qualification does not include testing of single-
channel memory mode, mixed DIMM type and/or vendors.
Supported DIMM capacities are 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB, and 4 GB.
