Detailed Features Notes: Refer to www.asus.com or user manual for the Memory QVL (Qualified Vendors Lists). Due to OS limitation, when installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows® 32-bit operation system may only recognize less than 3GB. Install a 64-bit Windows® OS when you want to install 4GB or more memory on the motherboard. AMD FX Series CPU on this motherboard supports up to DDR3 1866MHz as its standard memory frequency. When overclocking, some AMD CPU models may not support DDR3 1600 MHz or higher frequency DIMMs Due to CPU spec., AMD 100 and 200 series CPUs support up to DDR3 1066MHz. With ASUS design, this motherboard can support up to DDR3 1333MHz.
