CPU for ASUS X99

[greymoshroom]

I just got an ASUS X99 Deluxe LGA 2011 V3 socket...I am trying to figure which CPU within the Intel Xenon will allow me to run 128GB of RAM.

Thanks allot in advance for your answers and recommendations.

looks like the board only supports 64gb of ram but here he uses 128gb and claims compatibility with a xeon and 5960x even though the 5960x and the other cpus like the 5820k and 5930k supports 64gb ram and every xeon supports 768gb ram so any xeon would work. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYSG7gWfRTA - Plus if you check under the board memory compatibility it does support some kits of 128gb ram

Make sure that you have the latest bios in your board. Some boards didn't support 128gb from the beginning.
