Hmm, then I'd might it easier to understand if this is named "DIMM Size"
or "Minimal DIMM-Size", for the UI we could show the resulting max-memory
that one can achieve with each DIMM-Size selected.
The range could be from 128 MB to 64 GB (or higher?), and yeah if we have
an actual maximum we could also auto-calculate it, if not set explicitly
by the user.
But, I'm currently not to deep into this topic, so take my suggestions
with a grain of salt.
