Is the Asus CUSL2 motherboard compatible with VCM memory?

Is the Asus CUSL2 compatible with VCM memory, and if so can I use VCM ram PC133 together with regular ram PC133, or will it lack the system?

 

[BigToque]

what is VCM memory?

 

[MGOAS]

Like regular SD ram, just have a faster access time (5,4ns)

 

[BigToque]

does that just mean that it can run at higher FSB's? (like 150MHz HSDRAM)

5.4ns = 185MHz!

wow, unless its something different than what I think, is it even possible to run a CPU at that high a FSB?

 

[MGOAS]

I do not think so because it is sd ram pc133 with access time 5,4ns. It is a new type of memory witch is about 33% faster than regular ram.

If you mean virtual channel memory, I thought only VIA chipsets support it.

 

[MGOAS]

Yes, I mean Vitual Channel Memory, and I know that Soltek and Chaintech supports it, but I do not know about Asus and the CUSL2.

Virtual Channel RAM is not supported by ANY Intel chipset. That means there is not support for it on the ASUS CUSL2.

Thank you very much AndyHui!
