4x4GB FB-DIMM is cheaper than the Gskill set above by about 16%.
But, Skulltrail system appear to suggest it only support 8GB ram.

Wow. Just imagine the e-peen.
OK.. I thought some people were overkill.. but 16GB? Who needs that???
Kids are getting smarter, eventually no amount of parental controls will be able to stop themI guess we're expected to do quite well
i saw that too. i wonder if there is actual a board that supports 16gb of ram available yet that takes this ram
Edit: according to the the description they are supported by the p35 , x38 and x48 chipsets
Edit2: apparently Gigabyte AM2 boards support 16gb of ram.

Hmmm nice ramdisk
Would be the biggest waste of money anyone could spend............
Thanks, I just vomited into my mouth.
erm.... your welcome
And you'd still get people using it on 32Bit OS's
"I've heard there is a common problem with this item from forums" - If you read some forums they believe Elvis was abducted by aliens, doesn't mean it's true.
Yeah I bet it's windows 98 or even Windows ME - even when the motherboard manufacturer SPECIFICALLY states on their website that the motherboard is designed to be used with XP and above.And you'd still get people using it on 32Bit OS's
98 and ME won't boot on most motherboards now
It still doesn't stop them trying, and then asking for a replacement as they think they've got a faulty motherboard
Developers and Sys Admins running VM farms, although devs with machines that need that much grunt, tend to have proper dual/quad socket quad-CPU workstation motherboards with a stack of FB-DIMM slots, much the same with servers. But generally, it's hard to find motheboards that would even have a BIOS capable of addressing that much RAM.
