  • I never thought I'd max out 16gb of ram

    But my shit is pegged out right now. Looks like it's time to switch to 8gb modules instead of 4gb. Any good deals out there right now?

                16gb..and the latest I7 boards only seem to support 24GB... hope this doesn't mean a dual processor board.



                here's a 32GB board, with all kinds of shit I don't want/need.

                  WTH they come up with a new cooling system on that board? Why is that plastic black covering the entire board?

                      12gb here as 24gb puts to much stress on the IMC and I have to lower my clocks, and photoshop can eat it up very quickly in my experience.

                        Yes that's true, memory controllers shit when you fill them up. Some can't even remain stable at factory clocks. I keep my processor at factory speeds.

                            I thought I was badass with 6 gigs, it's a laptop at least.

                              w7, x64 if you were able to make an x86 memory limitation comment.
