Can x58 run with 5 sticks of RAM?

Edit: I tested and it works. However, the x58 documentation does not include 5 module operation. Just in case someone needs the idea how to put the modules:

Three modules: 0-1-0-1-0-1
Four modules : 1-1-0-1-0-1
Five modules : 1-1-0-1-1-1 (NOT 1-1-1-1-0-1)

In 4 or 5 module operation, x58 will still operate in triple channel mode. Unlike some claims in forums that x58 will fallback to single/dual channel.

All are 2GB DDR1333 module. Although different batch, different size, and a different brand.

Maybe I need to look for a piece of 2GB module to complete the 6 slots. If only I can find another piece for RM22 again. laugh.gif
