System memory

Tested memory
Memory testing was performed under the following categories:

Advanced tested memory*
Intel sends the advanced environmental test procedures, test software, and necessary hardware to an independent test lab for advanced testing as requested by the memory vendors. Memory is tested by Computer Memory Test Labs* (CMTL).

Basic self-tested memory
Intel offers the basic test procedures and test software to memory manufacturers to perform testing on their own products. These products are then listed on the web site of the manufacturer. You can use the basic self tested memory links to visit their sites and get information on their products.

System memory features
The Intel® Desktop Board D845WN has three DIMM sockets and supports the following memory features:

  • 3.3V (only) 168-pin SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts
  • Unbuffered single-sided or double-sided DIMMs
  • Maximum total system memory1: 3 GB with 3 DIMMs (using 512 MB technology); minimum total system memory: 32 MB
  • 133 MHz SDRAM DIMMs only
  • Serial presence detect (SPD)
  • Suspend to RAM support
  • ECC and non-ECC DIMMs
1 The Intel® Desktop Board D845HV and the Intel® Desktop Board D845WN design supports DIMMs based on 512 Mbit technology for a maximum onboard capacity of up to 3 GB. But, this technology is not validated for this board.
Note If ECC functionality is required, all installed DIMM modules must be ECC compliant.

The following table lists the supported DIMM configurations.
