Yeah But I called the reseller and spoken to Chris Hawkins and confirmed that it's really 8GBx4sticks. Check GSkill UK reseller and one of them has it.

They only got 3 sets though.

If you check the EAN numbers it will show results in EU suppliers with the same 8GBx4 specs.

If you've spoken to them them it must be right.

It's very odd though that 2 different products have the same SKU and that a 4x8GB kit isn't listed on the G.Skill website.

And the same EAN also links to 8x4GB kits :confused:

Actually I was looking for this

from UK reseller and just stumbled on that one. I also had the same results on google search that's why I called.

I'm having doubt as well but maybe you can help me clarify this. Sent the link to your trust.

Replied.

I've sent an email to GSkill HQ in Taiwan to try to confirm if this item is legit. If it is, then I might get my hands on one although I prefer the red one.

Can someone recommend me some memory for this board

Low mid and high end if possible and is it best to have 8gb 4x2 or 16gb 4x4?

Cheers

can i use corsair vengeance ddr3 1600 cl9 or does it really have to be memory
Designed for the x79 boards

Check the QVL of your motherboard. Some memory are not yet compatible with the quad channel and may require bios update. You can try if you already have the memory.

reygjabla · 10 Dec 2011 at 20:25

What?

You sure it's the Rampage IV Extreme not the Formula or the Rampage III? :rolleyes:

It's a good job you checked though otherwise you'd have ended up with the wrong RAM and had the mither of sending it back.

reygjabla · 12 Dec 2011 at 18:55

and to think I almost jump on it straight away

The memory is but not under a 32 gig bundle, the problem isn't the ram though because it's only happening on two specific dimm slots and I've tried other ram which didn't make any difference

Did you manage to sort it out StanTon?
:rolleyes:
