AMD Opteron™ Processor Compatible DDR Memory Modules
AMD Tested Memory

The AMD Opteron™ processor is designed to work with DDR SDRAM. The following lists contain DIMMs from leading DRAM suppliers that have been tested and qualified for use with the respective AMD64 processors. These lists are not intended to be a comprehensive collection of DIMMs that will reliably operate with AMD64 processors, but a baseline of available products that, when used with AMD64 products, will produce reliable, higher performance system solutions.

Validated DIMMs - AMD Opteron™ Processor

3rd Party Tested Memory

In addition to our own memory testing, AMD works with independent 3rd parties to provide a broader range of tested memory solutions for our customers. Computer Memory Test Labs (CMTL), an independent testing company, is able to test RAM modules from different module suppliers. System builders should access the CMTL web site a www.cmtlabs.com and view the recommended memory module list for the specific motherboard manufacturer and motherboard model.

Note: The CMTL website is provided for informational purposes only, and AMD recommends that a system builder conduct its own testing and validation to confirm that the memory modules are suitable for its systems.
