    As far as I know it's a software quirk. I do not know of any software to date that can read quad channel ram interfaces. Not even CPU-Z will report it...
    Doesn't show for me either, and I'm running 4 sticks in the right slots

    maybe true, but unbelievable anyways...
    it can't be that hard to detect a quad channel memory controller for a hardware analysis tool?! what really makes me wonder is that for the reference system in everest (it's an e5462 i think) it clearly says 'quad ddr2-640fb' so obviously there must be some mechanism to detect a quadchannel controller (or maybe its just a manual entry in the database... ). i'm not exaclty sure where the 640 is coming from though, it should be 667, but who knows?!

    oh man with all these reports of dead z7s ws boards, i am seriously consider stripping my rig and selling the mobo and cpus.

    i dont do number crunching or leave it on 24/7 like a lot of the people here, i've had this rig for what...1.2 years now, and I wouldn't want it dying on me any time soon

    spent a heafty bit, wouldn't want to see it go bad.
