If alignment checking is enabled (CR0.AM = 1, RFLAGS.AC = 1, and CPL = 3), an alignment-check exception (#AC) may or may not be generated (depending on processor implementation) when the operand is not aligned on an 8-byte boundary.

location, to store the contents of a YMM register into a 256-bit memory location, or to move data between two YMM registers.

Intel's PDF puts footnotes at the end of a page, with a horizontal line separating them from the rest of the text.
