Funny, I was advised to buy a ASUS P5B-VM since I need 8MB memory.
That would mean each of the 4 slots a 2GB DDR2 module. My local shop
suggests me to choose TWIN2XP2048-6400C4 (Corsair) but that are two
modules of each 1GB. I downloaded the ASUS manual and it tells that 8GB
memory is possible with 2GB modules but in the QVL only 1GB modules are
mentioned.
I did a quick search on the internet, but couldn't find any module sized
2GB occupying a single DDR2 slot.
Background is that I want to have a motherboard that is capable of 8GB
for CAD applications but my feeling is that this is not the right board
to use.
So is 8GB possible at all?
I suspect Tyan would have such a board, and you could find yourself
using Xeon or Opteron.
Probably the Tier 1 vendors also have ready-to-run workstations, not
necessarily IA32/AMD-64. IBM's pSeries would be worth a look.
