Additional Notes

  • Accessing all 4 memory slots requires a teardown of the motherboard because 2 slots are located on the underside of the PCB while the other 2 are accessible under the bottom service panel.
  • The 128 GB maximum capacity requires the use of 32 GB modules in every slot.
  • Mixing modules with different internal timings or rankings across the 4 slots will force the memory controller to default to the slowest common denominator or potentially cause boot failure.
  • Installing high frequency memory modules will result in an automatic downclock to 2666 MHz because the Intel 8th generation chipset limits the maximum bus speed.
  • Dual channel mode functionality is only preserved when modules are installed in matched pairs across the specific primary and secondary slot banks.
  • High density 32 GB modules generate more heat than lower capacity sticks which may impact thermal throttling thresholds during heavy workloads in this specific chassis architecture.
  • The use of 4 populated slots increases the load on the Integrated Memory Controller and may require a BIOS update to ensure stability with newer high capacity silicon chips.
  • Factory installed thermal pads or shielding may need to be reinstalled on new modules to maintain the original heat dissipation profile designed for the Titan series.
