no idea honestly but other guys in this thread seem to be able to run it with 4 sticks at lower speeds

well that sucks... have you tried lowering RAM speed?

awesome, thanks 4 info!

I need both single-threaded performance but also as many cores as I can get. So 14900 is my best choice I think without breaking the bank with threadripper platform.

Exactly that. It's not a problem if my simulations\renders are 4% slower or whatever, but if they can't fit in the RAM, I have a major problem.

 

Been reading a bit, it seems that even 64gb is troublesome\unstable on this platform (also goes for AMD?)

I'd like to go higher than that in my next 3D\creator oriented build, 128 or even higher if possible (been seeing some BIOS updates that allegedly allow up to 196 or even 256gb on some boards?) so I can avoid threadripper build cost.

Is it a real issue and how would you go about building a max RAM-loaded workstation in 2023\2024?

Currently rocking ancient i7-5820k with 64gb ram and it feels a bit tight on the ram side when doing Houdini simulations and even some renders.
