No. I have this board in my OI machine. Check the technical manual:

http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/s1200bt/G13326-003_S1200BT_TPS_v1_0.pdf

It states:

	"Only ECC memory is supported on this platform."
	"Only Unregistered (Unbuffered) DIMMs (UDIMMs) are supported"

 I took a screenshot of the supported RAM list from Intel's site because it was very difficult to find:

Best of luck,
