32gb Memory?

[thepregnantgod]

I currently have 16gb installed. However, with the very low memory prices, 32gb is feasible and my mobo supports it.

Problem is...how does one use all 32gb of memory?

Any ideas?

You don't need it. The cheapest set of 32 gb at newegg is $440.

Actually, about $200 cheaper. 32gb for $250.

Yes, but those are 8 ram sticks. How many desktop boards have 8 ram slots. Most have 4. For 4 eight gb sticks, $440 is the bottom line.

Good catch! Of course the new X79 boards have 8 slots!
