Ahh, I must keep SVM enabled then as it is required for what I'm using this for as it is virtualization as well. 4x RAM sticks work just fine also. No hardware reserved. This only occurs with 7x RAM sticks. |

With datonyb's research, I agree with his recommendation - 4 sticks till better BIOS/AGESA. I would also recommend everyone affected hit AMD with a ticket. Enjoy, John.

from a quick read around on a google search
it would seem at present its not going to be cured by even using another brand of board both gigabyte and asus seem to be having the same problem with x399 its just not liking 128gb/8 sticks most users posts/feedback is cant get a boot with the 8 sticks, one or two guys have managed after many many hours of manual tweaking, to then be presented with windows not seeing all of the 128gb phrases like '96gb system reserved' i have literally found just one person stating they have had success that was a gigabyte board and corsiar dominator platinum ram at 2400mhz iif it was me guys i would use the stable 4 sticks in quad (64gb) and stay with what you have for the later bios updates (of course support tickets sent in with EXACT details of the ram kits and your board will help the bios/tech team to get the kits working) |

Benja, if, and only IF, your system is STABLE on 4 sticks, I would highly suggest you upflash to 1.50. Using only 4 sticks to upflash with. NOT 8 installed. 1.50 addresses "some' 128GB (16GBx8) Kits. What ones I can't say as I'm not aware. Please post back. |

Hi,
SVM enabled (SVM settings is needed to enable virtualziation functions), my memory are at stock speed/voltage...XMP profile is set to auto and the only other setting is enable XMP. Sorry but i don't want a workaround to have a stable configuration, i need a fix. I build my workstation/configuration for a virtualization lab and not for gaming pourpose, 128Gb is a must for my pourpose...i don't expect an enterprise support from Asrock...but if I haven't a resonable respone from the support whithin tuesday, I'll change the motherboard for another brand. @128noGB and @MisterJ if you consider to change MB pay attention to Gigabyte X399 Gaming 7, it have the same issue http://forum.gigabyte.us/thread/1854/x399-gaming-128gb-ram-issue Waiting an ASrock response! PS. Yestrday i'm able to install VMware ESXi 6.5U1 on our buggy MB, OS see only 16Gb ![]() Edited by Benja - 30 Sep 2017 at 6:44pm |

Hey there, firstly thanks for the response! ---> Clear the UEFI/CMOS with the jumper on the board. Could you confirm for me how to do this on the Fatal1ty x399 board? I haven't found something that explicitly says what to do. What I've done is this: 1) Turn off the PSU (the big PSU power switch) 2) Press and hold the "Clear CMOS" button (button, not jumper) on the motherboard for 5 seconds 3) Turn the PSU back on and boot Is that correct way to clear the UEFI/CMOS? I'm not even sure that is correctly clearing the UEFI/CMOS. I can't figure out how to confirm it, since the system isn't POSTing correctly anyway. The x399 Fatal1ty manual doesn't help on this as it doesn't specifically list exactly what to do. I'm fine with saying "This memory won't work" (despite it being on ASRock's QVL). I just want to know what memory would actually work. I will go out and buy that memory in an absolute heartbeat. I just need to know what to buy. The QVL told me this Corsair memory was the fastest to get, but it won't work, so what else should I buy that is the fastest? Assume there is no budget constraint. Many thanks again for the help! If you tell me what to buy which is QVL for x399 ASRock then I'll buy it today (If Microcenter has it, I'll get it immediately and report back with the results on Saturday). |

Hey there, I have no idea what SVM even is. Could you tell me where to disable it in the BIOS and I'll give it a go (I couldn't find it in the manual). I opened a ticket with ASRock and they rarely respond, and so far have told me to send BIOS screenshots with 8 dimms, despite me telling them it won't POST to bios at all with 8. Thanks! |
