Guys a friend of mine recently purchased a new Ryzen 2950x system which has 128gb of ram ( 8 Sticks ) but when it goes into Windows it only counts 96gb. I'm not sure what the board is but i know its a decent Gigabyte board and the Ram is the Corsair Vengeance stuff and i believe its 3200. I can confirm all the sticks work as we tested in different configurations.

At the minute he has ordered hyper x ram to see if that solves his problem but we cant find anything concrete if this is the solution. I have found through other forums that this is a know issue with the thread ripper. I have also seen some Motherboards recommend certain ram but that's for the first gen thread rippers.

The bios has been updated to the latest version also.

Has this happened to anyone else? Can anyone explain why this is or point me in the correct way to help him out?
