Its seems remarkably cheap, £78 quid for 16GB (and therefore £156 for 32GB)

Its a typo, price error or dam rubbish memory right , too good to be true right.

Ok,

Its just a bargin then.

I didn't know about the 16GB limit, I am still on Vista Home Basic which only supports 8GB ( I have 6GB) was going to buy Windows 7 at the same time (mainly for SSD Trim support). I guess I will have to budget for Windows 7 Pro.

This is dual channel stuff not quad!!! I presume your looking for quad at 32mb.

I buying an new Ivy CPU plus a motherboard, thats Dual isn't it???

Just get W7 HP 64 bit unless you really need 32gb of RAM.

Well I don't really need 32GB, but I do like filling slots.

I can kind of justify getting Pro if I tell myself, I will use it for work (even though I know I will never join it to the domain).

Oh its Ivy not X79!! Right two duals should work fine then.

Sandy E and X79 is a little to rich for me. Of course if did go LGA2011 then I would need 64GB to max the slots, even though I know it is pointless.
