System Memory Update – Quad-Core Processors
On systems with quad-core processors, the 667-MHz memory transfer speed
is supported only if the system contains eight memory modules or fewer
(no more than four modules per processor). On quad-core systems with more
than eight memory modules total, the system BIOS limits the memory
transfer speed to 533 MHz.
See support.dell.com for the latest information on memory support on
quad-core processor systems and for any system updates available for download.
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Update
Systems shipping in China are not equipped with TPM. Disregard any TPM
options listed in the "Using the System Setup Program" chapter of your
Hardware Owner’s Manual.
System Power Cable Requirements
If you purchased your system without a power cable, you must provide
a power cable approved for use in your country that meets or exceeds
the voltage requirements of your system and is rated for 10A or more.
NOTICE: Do not use a power cable with a current rating of less than 10A.
