One DIMM per channel in dual channel is two modules, so 2x1R (1Rx8 or 1Rx16) and 2x2R (2Rx8). The footnote names CUDIMM only and no speed for plain UDIMMs. Tom's Hardware wrote in January 2025 that Intel did not mention CUDIMM for the non-K chips, so this is the brief's wording for the whole chart.
