Default Sabertooth x79

I have a sabertooth x58 mobo with 24 gig of triple channel ram, vengence corsair ram. If I upgraded to a x79 mobo is that ram compatible or do i need the Quad ram?

thks

You need Quad channel Ram. Its really dual channel X4. I would only get a kit though, mixing and trying to match memory is a bad idea IMHO.

I'm using 2 dual channel kits (each of 4 DIMMs) on my Sabertooth X79. No stability issues whatsoever.
