Quote - No Mobo for AMD, not counting servers, have more than 4 ram slots. If you went to an Intel cpu you could then get an 1366 Mobo with 6 ram slots. 24gb of DDR3 ram.
But from what I have seen so far with the new i7's sandybrigde or what ever they will call them, not yet released. The Mobo's are back to 4 slots again. The ones I've seen so far, but are quad channel.
So two options to go higher than 16gb RAM.
1366 Mobo.
8gb RAM sticks instead of 4gb ram sticks but it is going to cost for those 8 gb sticks.
Yeah, I think the salesman I spoke with said that 4gb is currently at around $50. I am thinking of getting the most powerful combo I can, which includes a 1 TB hard drive and leaving it at that.. Not sure about the graphics though...that's a whole issue within itself.
