Thought so.

So that's what, 5-6 boards?

All going by what the theoretical max it can support.

In reality, 650i struggles to get 4gb supported in a stable fashion on a good system.

As in my first post, I know there is the odd enthusiast board that does theoretically claim support for 32gb, very few, if any will actually work with that much ram.

Well if they say they support it, and if 4x8GB sticks can be found, they have to honour it!

False advertising through the hope that no-one can test the claim? Thin ice!

the abit 680i was the last board I saw to claiim 32GB support, i had a large LOL after seeing the box.

I found this thing's big brother: http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/g..._/bf3d2000.jpg
:D

ROFL @ Craftyman.

Of course not, but that wasn't what was asked.

Show me a 650i board that supports 32gb.

Thought not.

We did. The nVidia spec says" "Maximum RAM supported: 32 gb".

Given all enthusiast boards only have 4 RAM slots it's ALL theoretical, so that argument isn't even valid. Of course it's theoretical, is anyone even debating that? :shrug:

So what? It's the spec on all those 650i boards. Refer to previous comment. nVidia claims this spec. Now as soon as this 8 gig DIMM is available in non-registered, non-server style, we can test their claim. :p:

So the OS would see 32GB as 20GB C:\ and 12GB memory

:D

that would be awesome, all solid state hard drives could kiss my arse if microsoft integrated that into windows...

or maybe a motherboard manufacturer could build one into a motherboard, so you could set the motherboard to grab a few gigs of ram and show it to the operating system as a hard drive, similar to how you tell the BIOS to use a certain amount of system memory as video-ram for onboard gfx chipsets. a program or feature like that would virtually destroy the PC solid state hard drive market (i-ram, nand-flash hard drives, etc).

The sad thing, Craftyman, is that Quake11 will need a video card with multiple GPUs and definitely more than 256MB of vram :)
