Intel® Desktop Board DG43NB
System memory

Updated: April 2009


System Memory Features
The Desktop Board supports the dual or single channel memory configurations defined below.

  • Two 240-pin Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) SDRAM Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) connectors with gold-plated contacts
  • Non-ECC, 1.8 V, DDR2 800/667 MHz memory
  • Serial Presence Detect (SPD) memory only
  • Unbuffered, non-registered single- or double-sided DIMMs (except double-sided DIMMs with x16 organization)
  • A minimum of 512 MB of total memory is required
Notes
  • To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel® SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. If your memory modules do not support SPD, you will see a notification to this effect on the screen at power up. The BIOS will attempt to configure the memory controller for normal operation.
  • System resources and hardware (such as PCI Express) require physical memory address locations that can reduce available addressable system memory. This could result in a reduction of as much as 1 GB or more of physical addressable memory being available to the operating system and applications, depending on the system configuration and operating system.


Supported Memory Configurations


DIMM Type SDRAM Technology Smallest usable DIMM Largest usable DIMM Maximum capacity with two identical x8 double-sided DIMMs
DDR2 667 512 Mbit 256 MB 4 GB 8 GB
DDR2 800 512 Mbit 256 MB 4 GB 8 GB

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.


Tested Memory

3rd Party Tested Memory*
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 - Computer Memory Test Labs (CMTL).

Vendor Self Tested Memory
Intel supplies the memory vendors that participate in this program with a common memory test plan to use as a basic checkout of the memory stability. Memory listed here was either tested by the memory vendor or by Intel using this test plan. These part numbers may not be readily available throughout the product life cycle.

The table below lists parts which passed testing conducted using Intel's Self Test program for Intel® Desktop Board DG43NB.
