I messed up. Buying Z9PE-D8 WS with 4 x16 Slots and 256GB DDR3 RDIMM
I looked at this motherboard with 256 RDIMMs and the x16 slots.
Proof1 community thread
Key points
- I have 2x V620 and 2x Mi50 32GB.
- This absolute hot garbage does not enumerate a single 32GB GPU.
- I wish there was a world I could reuse the DDR3 RDIMMS in this board, but, I know that is too much to ask.
- Help please, I don’t want to drop 1k between a mobo and ram but if this is the world we are living in, then please recommend.
