I'm wanting to nurse this X58 setup a bit longer and I'm starting to run up against my installed 12Gb of RAM.

CPU-Z shows the existing 3x4Gb kit as PC3-12800 at 1.5V so if someone has something to match that, or a 3x8Gb, or even a faster 6x4Gb kit I guess.

Thanks in advance guys.
 
Just be aware that 8gb sticks may not be compatible with your board.
 
Good to know. 8GB sticks were not compatible with my MSI and EVGA boards before I sold them,

I'm also running a X5660 and not a regular i7. Not sure how much different the memory controller is or not.
 
Yeah, you know what? Thank you guys so much for the replies! This threatens to go off topic for a fs/t thread. It looks like getting 24GB to work on X58 is a bit of a crap shoot and I might be better off to just buy the 6x4GB Corsair kit that folks have had decent luck with on my board (ASUS R3F).

If you have something you are pretty sure will work please post up, but let's not spam fs/t with a troubleshooting discussion. I will start another thread and link here, thanks.
