3rd party tested memory occurs as requested by the memory vendors and is tested at an independent memory house that is not a part of Intel.
Memory tested by Computer Memory Test Labs (CMTL).

System Memory Features
The board has two DIMM sockets and support the following memory features:
2.5 V (only) DDR SDRAM DIMMs
Unbuffered, single-sided or double-sided DIMMs with the following restriction:
Double-sided DIMMs with x16 organization are not supported.
Minimum total system memory: 128 MB
Non-ECC DIMMs
Serial Presence Detect
DDR 400 MHz and DDR 333 MHz SDRAM DIMMs
The following table lists the supported system bus frequency and memory speed combinations.
Supported system bus frequency and memory speed combinations
To use this type of DIMM...
The processor's system bus frequency must be...
DDR 400
800 MHz
DDR 333
800 or 533 MHz
Note
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance. If non-SPD memory is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the determined frequency.
The following table lists the supported DIMM configurations.
