The objective of the Intel® validation program for DDR is to verify DDR SDRAM compliance to the Intel® specifications for DDR and performance of supported DDR memory modules in Intel® reference systems, so as to provide a guideline for memory compatibility with Intel® chipsets. This validation will be performed by an approved test lab on a small sample of components and modules and is intended to demonstrate supplier design and manufacturing capability. The validation process uses standardized procedures and methodologies documented in the Intel® validation procedure for DDR. For a copy of the procedure, contact the test lab. This documented procedure is not intended to replace the normal product qualification process. (For a list of approved test labs, please refer to the appropriate validation results page.)
Validation is performed at the component and Registered DIMM/Unbuffered DIMM/SO-DIMM levels and the results are posted below.
