Hey guys!

For my new 'ultimate build' im maxing out everything. 4 Titan X's, i7-5960X, 2TB SSD's etc... but the RAM?

Im looking for 128GB. Thats 8x 16GB sticks.

Thanks for your help!

Marry it.


Kidding. Probably keep it, since i wont be able to sell this thing after, since its insane overkill and super expensive. Im making a build video for it, which should hopefully be interesting...

Hmmm. you think 128GB Memory will be enough? Why not go 512GB?

Odd. The largest i've been able to find is 64GB with 8x 8GB stick. Must be a rarity finding 16GB sticks. Which board are you thinking of installing this in?

You are correct. Here are the 16gB sticks. Crucial is a relialble company

Don't think the mobo supports ECC DRAM

So you would say go with crucials DDR4 version? I was looking at just DDR3 with rads on (yeah i know they dont really need rads, i just want it to look nice lol.) But maybe i should get ddr4...

 

[bajansam]

I didnt even notice that, you are correct...

 

[Tradesman1]

Also you can't run DDR3 on a 2011 V3 mobo - it's strictly DDR4

Jesus, that what obvious too. Well its settled than haha! thanks.

 

[Tradesman1]

The Best solution you picked is also buffered ECC, and not supported

 

[bajansam]

[Tradesman1]

Click Unselect Best Solution in the answer you selected

 

[bajansam]

Click Unselect Best Solution in the answer you selected

Theres not an option for that? Maybe you can do it as a mod?

 

[Wolfshadw]

You don't see a grey, "Unselect current solution" button in the post currently marked as best solution?
