Purpose:
Guide user properly install memory modules by providing physical DIMM slots info and recommended memory configuration for DDR4 DIMM population from Skylake/CascadeLake processor based systems.
Target Audience:
For users who bought FWA-5070/6070 series platforms
Top View of DIMM sockets:
- FWA-5070 /6070CPU is using Skylake/CascadeLake type, this CPU is included 2 Memory Control Hub (MCH), and each MCH controls 3 DIMM channels,
- Each FWA-5070/6070 DIMM channel supports 2 DIMMs , the Black DIMM socket is the primary socket (ex: A1,B1...), and blue DIMM is secondary(ex: A2, B2,...)
- Install DIMM module in primary socket first is recommended and then secondary socket per DIMM channel.
- Please refer following table for recommended DIMM population
- When user doesn't follow this recommended DIMM populations, the CPU may NOT be able to utilize (initiate) installed memory modules and get better DIMM performance on FWA-5070/6070 platforms
Recommended DIMM populations (aligned sockets):
DIMM module installation: we suggest customer referring following table to install 6/12 for enabling Triple channel mode
