A system and method for controlling DRAM is described. According to exemplary embodiments of the present invention, a memory subsystem can be populated by end users with any of a variety of DRAM chips. A memory controller will size each memory bank and determine whether paired memory banks are to be configured as interleaved or non-interleaved based upon the detected DRAM population. Bank selection logic is designed to account for both size and status (interleaved or non-interleaved) when determining which memory bank contains a memory location of interest. Row and column addressing is selected to minimize decoding of an incoming system address and reduce DRAM access time.
