It depends on the other components in your system. My board overclocks just as well with 12GBs as it did with 6GB. I don't know how often I use anything above 6GBs, but I bought my ram when the market bottomed out and 6GBs of DDR3 memory cost less than $100. With 6GB kits now at $150 I don't know if I would make the same decision.I'm debating between 6GB and 12GB of RAM on my new build.
I want to be able to OC the 920 to about 4GHz (I'd be happy with 3.8GHz).
Would using 6 DIMMS limit how stable or how far I can go?
I run 6gb of my office and would recommend that as a bare minimum for doing VM work. If you do VM + CAD I could see the use for the extra space, but maybe not if you aren't doing both at once...
Careful if you're using VMWare Workstation though, some versions of that product are gimped to only work on 8gb of RAM or less.
