128 GB of memory in x399 Professional Gaming?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

I'm trying to build a new PC using a ASRock Fatal1ty x399 Professional Gaming motherboard (for AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2970WX) and I was wondering how is it possible to get the 128 GB of max memory that the manual indicates as the top limit if the list of certified memory sticks accepted only includes 16GB with max DIMM socket support of 8 at most, according to the official list there are no 32GB supported:

https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/Fatal1ty%20X399%20Professional%20Gaming/index.asp#Memory

Am I misunderstanding what the list means? Does it mean that it might be possible that the system works with some 32GB sticks to be able to have 8 of those and reach the 128GB max memory but it's not guaranteed that it will work?

If that's the case, are there some recommendations of which exact brand and models can achieve that?

Thanks!
