8 bits
The GMCH supports 6 physical rows of DRAM in 3 DIMMs. The width of a row is 64 bits. The DRAM
Row Population Register defines the population of each side of each DIMM. Note that this entire register
becomes read-only when the D_LCK bit is set to 1. For D_LCK bit description, see SMRAM register
(Device 0, address offset 70h).
If the system memory interface is configured to run at 133 MHz, the system BIOS must use the DRP
register (offset 52h) along with the DRP2 register (offset 52h) to detect whether the memory
configuration exceeds 2 double-sided DIMMs or 3 single-sided DIMMs. If so, the system BIOS must
down-shift the clock generator to 100 MHz to guarantee electrical integrity and timings.
