Integrator's Note
It is possible to install four 2048 MB (2 GB) modules for a total of 8 GB of system memory, however, only 4 GB of address space is available.


Supported System Bus Frequency and Memory Speed Combinations


To use this type of DIMM... The processor's system bus frequency must be...
DDR 400 800 MHz
DDR 333 (Note) 800 or 533 MHz

Note:
When using an 800 MHz system bus frequency processor, DDR 333 memory is clocked at 320 MHz. This minimizes system latencies to optimize system throughput.

Supported DIMM Configurations


DIMM Capacity Configuration SDRAM Density SDRAM Organization Front-side/Back-side Number of SDRAM Devices

128 MB SS 256 Mbit 16 M x 16/empty 4
256 MB SS 256 Mbit 32 M x 8/empty 8
256 MB SS 512 Mbit 32 M x 16/empty 4
512 MB DS 256 Mbit 32 M x 8/32 M x 8 16
512 MB SS 512 Mbit 64 M x 8/empty 8
512 MB SS 1 Gbit 64 M x 16/empty 4
1024 MB DS 512 Mbit 64 M x 8/64 M x 8 16
1024 MB SS 1 Gbit 128 M x 8/empty 8
2048 MB DS 1 Gbit 128 M x 8/128 M x 8 16

Note:
In the second column, "DS" refers to double-sided memory modules (containing two rows of SDRAM) and "SS" refers to single-sided memory modules (containing one row of SDRAM).


I can't understand the line It is possible to install four 2048 MB (2 GB) modules for a total of 8 GB of system memory, however, only 4 GB of address space is available.

No need for all this.for DDR Just check the no. on RAM slots on mobo.No. of slots*1 Gb per slot is the max. your mobo can take.

it says 2 gb modules

it means the slots can take 2GB modules too. but due to the limitation of the architecture or memory addressing, only 4GB is usable. this is limitation of the product side and you can't do anything about it. so don't worry about it.
