Actual memory speed drops to 1333 MHz when you choose Pentium Processor or Celeron
Processor.
The memory requirement for installing VMware ESXi™ are below:
- VMware ESXi 5.1 : at least 3 GB
- VMware ESXi 5.5 : at least 5 GB
- VMware ESXi 6.0 : at least 5 GB
Maximum Available Memory
See the table below for the maximum memory size that you can actually use on your system.
The maximum available memory is less than the maximum physical memory supported by your system
because some chipsets require PCI resource space of about 750MB. PCI resource requirements vary
depending on the type and the number of PCI cards you are using.
