6 or 12 gb DDR3

Rover3500 · #1 06-01-10, 01:02 PM

Hi all,

I have just setup a new system using X58 ATM I have 6gb of trident 2000mhz ram running @ 1700mhz T1

My question is If I add another 6gb so using all 6 slots will this still run at this speed and T1 or will it be like the old AMD and slow down to T2 timings.

Has anyone already done this ?

Any help appreciated,

Thanks,

more RAM sticks with AMD usualy means its harder to OC the CPU,i assume its the same for your RAM

Hi,

Yes I know about AMD limitations, I was wondering if the same applies to the Intel X58, being as the socket 1366 has onboard memory as did the AM2 etc'

or has intel made an improved type of onboard memory for their i7 cpu's which would allow 6 ram sticks to run @ T1

Hi m8, thx for your replies,

There must be someone here that has an X58 i7 setup with 6 ram sticks ???

Will they run T1 or like the AMD have to be reduced to T2
