Abstract
A computer system for multi-type DRAM support includes a first slot for receiving a first type DRAM, a second slot for receiving a second type DRAM, a north bridge chip, and a control circuit. The first slot includes a plurality of first slot pins, and each of them corresponds to a first pin assignment. The second slot includes a plurality of second slot pins, and each of them corresponds to a second pin assignment. The north bridge chip includes a plurality of chip pins, and each of them corresponds to a first and second pin assignment. When the control circuit generates a first control signal, the pin assignments of the chip pins are defined as the first pin assignments. When the control circuit generates a second control signal, the pin assignments of the chip pins are defined as the second pin assignments.
