Guy made X99 deluxe work with 128GB of ram , How ?

Solution
I think its sad like the guy above pointed out there was a bios for 128gb memory support but you ask asus on it and they said no way?? they don't know they don't care they got your money and you got there board ..

like there 990fx board speced for 140w but give 220w chip support in the cpu list of the boards [ lol..] and guys running them 220w chips cant figure out why there not working so well [lol...]

asus today = all hype no quality .. like you said got too big for there britches and too many irons in the fire and there now lost


anyway good luck

for x99 deluxe motherboard it says new bios update that supports 16gb ram modules
so does this automatically mean that it will support 128GB after bios update ?
 
I would implicate it from support of 16GB modules unless ASUS wants to have unhappy customers with only 4 of 8 RAM slots occupied. You can try to contact ASUS support and ask them directly.
 


I contacted those birds today, they said no ))) f.. idiots Guy made 128 GB work ON F..... x99 deluxe .. asus tells no )))
asus and Nvidia support teams deserve each other
 


they just think very big about themselves .. people need to stop buying their products , we will see then how they will change their behavior , I think they will even sell their employes and suck! all over my johnson... deep and deep in order to back to the market
and I will laught and laught ...I will give them No blanket

If you bought Asrock instead of Asus you actually did not ditch Asus, because Asrock is owned and manufactured by Asus and their ODM. :)

If support told you no it may be official stand in mean that they wont provide support for such solution. It's illogical to make bios update to support 16GB memory modules while still keeping max of 64GB ram.
It may be just wrongly informed support guy who just read manual which stated 64GB support and made it as official stand which is sadly not so rare. It's possible that if you contacted them multiple times you would get different answer every time (this is sadly common with support of many brands).

Only way to know for sure is to test it. Ofc result of test may be that it does not work.
 
''Asus, because Asrock is owned and manufactured by Asus ''

that's not correct they broke off years ago

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASRock

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asus

notice how asus when part of Pegatron they were making solid stuff and like today broke off and sucks today

and how asrock went to Pegatron and is now striving and making innovative and solid products

the table has turned [opinion]
 


Asus owns Pegatron and through them they own Asrock.
You have it written in very same wiki pages you linked.

But this is not really topic of this thread.

To OP: You got option to either believe to info from ASUS or that article you linked. Don't know how detailed was your communication with ASUS, maybe if you contact asus again and point to bios update which enables 16GB ram modules support hence should allow 128 total memory support you may be more lucky.

As I wrote before sadly you can get different response everytime you contact support (not just asus but others brands too) depending on how knowledgeable or how eager to actually look was that particular support person. I imagine that person you contacted just run it through system and checked manual or default spec sheet which stated 64GB max ram and was done.
 
no they don't come on man

''It's worth noting that ASUS has long stopped making motherboards for other companies. The OEM business was offloaded to its subsidiary Pegatron in 2008, before that company was spun off completely two years later.''


what don't you understand in that ''before that company was spun off ''completely'' two years later.''

anyway ....and this
