Installing and Removing Memory

Intel Desktop board DX79TO has eight 240-pin DDR3 DIMM sockets arranged in four

channels (A, B, C, and D). See Figure 2 for the memory layout.

For optimal

memory performance:

• Install DIMMs in numerical order (1-8).

• For dual-, tri-, and quad-channel operation install matched DIMMs of equal speed

and size in each channel.

• If you are installing four or fewer DIMMs, use the blue sockets.

Installing DIMMs

NOTE

Using a DIMM with a voltage rating higher than 1.65 V may damage the processor.

To install a DIMM, follow these steps:

1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 31.

2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the

computer. Turn off the computer

and disconnect the AC power cord.

3. Remove the computer’s cover and locate the DIMM sockets (see Figure 15).
