Terminology
Specification Changes are modifications to the current published specifications.
These changes will be incorporated in the next release of the specifications.
Errata are design defects or errors. Characterized errata may cause the desktop
board behavior to deviate from published specifications. Hardware and software
designed to be used with any given Altered Assembly (AA) and BIOS revision level
must assume that all errata documented for that AA and BIOS revision level are
present on all desktop boards.
Specification Clarifications describe a specification in greater detail or further
highlight a specifications impact to a complex design situation. These clarifications
will be incorporated in the next release of the specifications.
Documentation Changes include typos, errors, or omissions from the current
published specifications. These changes will be incorporated in the next release of the
specifications.

Summary of Changes
The following table indicates the Specification Changes, Errata, Specification
Clarifications, or Documentation Changes that apply to the Intel Desktop Board
DX58SO. Intel intends to fix some of the errata in a future revision of the desktop
board, and to account for the other outstanding issues through documentation or
specification changes as noted.
The following notations are used in the table:

Specification Changes
The Specification Changes listed in this section apply to the Intel Desktop Board
DX58SO Technical Product Specification (Order Number E59290).
1. Added Note to Section 2.1 Memory Resources section.
NOTE
Due to limitations imposed by the original IBM PC-AT specification the total peripheral
option space is 128KB. The impact of this limitation is that it may not be possible to
use multiple add-in cards, which have legacy option-ROMs, in conjunction with the
DX58SOs on board devices due to the limited space available. Examples of these
cards are LAN, RAID, and graphics cards.
The symptom of over-crowded option ROM space is that some devices will not be
initialized and therefore will not function correctly, or not appear in the operating
system.
Four 240-pin Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) SDRAM Dual Inline Memory Module
(DIMM) connectors with gold-plated contacts arranged in two channels
1600+/1333/1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM Memory Modules
Support for single- and dual-channel memory interleaving
Unbuffered, non-registered single- or double-sided DIMMs with a voltage rating of
1.65 V or less.
NOTE
Using a DIMM with a voltage rating higher than 1.65 V may damage the processor.
NOTE
DDR3 1600 or higher memory support on this desktop board requires compatible XMP
enabled memory or advanced knowledge of BIOS and manual memory tuning.
Individual results may vary.
3. Add additional information to Section 1.5 System Memory.
Four 240-pin Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) SDRAM Dual Inline Memory Module
(DIMM) connectors with gold-plated contacts arranged in two channels
1600+/1333/1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM Memory Modules
Support for single- and dual-channel memory interleaving
Unbuffered, non-registered single- or double-sided DIMMs with a voltage rating of
1.65 V or less
16 GB maximum total system memory (with 2 Gb memory technology). Refer to
Section 2.1.1 on page 39 for information on the total amount of addressable
memory.
Minimum total system memory: 1 GB using 512 MB x16 module
Non-ECC DIMMs
Serial Presence Detect
XMP version 1.2 performance profile support is required for memory speeds above
1333 MHz or use of manual adjustments.
NOTE
Using a DIMM with a voltage rating higher than 1.65 V may damage the processor.
NOTE
DDR3 1600 or higher memory support on this desktop board requires compatible XMP
enabled memory or advanced knowledge of BIOS and manual memory tuning.
Individual results may vary.
