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:
2.6 V (only) 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
Unbuffered, single-sided or double-sided DIMMs with the following restriction:
Double-sided DIMMs with x16 organization are not supported.
2 GB maximum total system memory
Minimum total system memory: 64 MB
Non-ECC DIMMs
Serial Presence Detect
DDR400, DDR333, and DDR266 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...
DDR400
800 MHz
DDR333 (Note)
800 or 533 MHz
DDR266
800, 533 or 400 MHz
Note: When using an 800 MHz system bus frequency processor, DDR333 memory is clocked at 320 MHz. This minimizes system latencies to optimize system throughput.
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.
