Processor
MITAC Desktop Board PD10AI includes a passively-cooled, Intel Apollo ake N3350/N4200
processor with integrated graphics and memory controller. The processor is soldered
to the Desktop Board and is not customer upgradeable.
NOTE
The board is designed to be passively cooled in a properly ventilated chassis. Chassis
venting locations are recommended above the processor heatsink area for maximum
heat dissipation effectiveness.
System Memory
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable SDRAM memory specifications the
board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD)
data structure. If your memory modules do not support SPD you will see a
notification to this effect on the screen at power up. The BIOS will attempt to
configure the memory controller for normal operation.
The Desktop Board has two 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM sockets with gold-plated contacts.
These sockets support:
Support for DDR3 SO-DIMMs
Serial Presence Detect (SPD) memory only
Non-ECC memory
Up to 8 GB of memory (on a single SO-DIMM or 4 GB each by 2 SO-DIMM)
