So back when we were still on socket 775 i thought if we had all 4 dimm slots filled, we'd lose some ability to obtain a max OC. Is that still the case with sandy bridge? I'm getting ready to build a new rig to replace the old quad with ivy bridge, but i'm not sure if I should move to 16gig with 2x8gig sticks or if i can roll with 4x4gig sticks without any issues. My goal is to obtain my max OC of the cpu above all else, so if 4x4gig sticks doesn't hinder me, i'll go that route since its cheaper.
