The Cache Memory
This system board can support an optional 64KB, 128KB, 256KB, 512KB or 1MB external write back, direct-mapped cache.
 
Some Cache Memory Considerations:
 Since single bank cache installations (B, D, F) prevent the cache sub-system from using interleaving access, the "Auto Configuration" in the Advanced Chipset Setup must be disabled and the "Cache Read Wait State" must also be set to "3-2-2-2" to ensure proper operation.

The Memory
There are 4 banks of 72 pin SIMM sockets on this board with each bank of 72 pin SIMM consisting of only one SIMM socket as denoted as Bank 0, Bank 1, Bank 2 & Bank 3. The system board has auto-detection circuitry to sense which bank or banks are filled. Any SIMM module in the configurations listed below with Fast Page Mode, single or double sided memory can be used.
 
Some Memory Considerations:
  Maximum memory on-board can not exceed 256 MB in any combination.
  The memory installed in banks 0 & 1 must be more than or equal to the memory installed in banks 2 & 3.
  If both of the SIMM sockets in any single group (i.e. banks 0 & 1) are filled then both of the SIMM modules must be of the same type. However, you do not have to fill up a single group with SIMM modules before starting on the next. See below for more clarification on these considerations.
