1BlackHatch Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Are there going to be any problems with this setup? I read on MSI's site that double sided memory modules will be run at 333 if they are in all 4 slots. Are these double sided? Any comments. Spec'ing out huge system for work and I want to make sure to have no headaches. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampcat Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I have a matched pair of this 3200XLPRO (2x512) memory installed on the Neo2, and decided instead of doing careful research, I figured I would just double it by getting another matched pair. After purchasing this memory, I have determined that it does NOT work in the configuration you are describing (4x512). I have not yet resorted to messing with BIOS to see if I can work around it -- but that already looks like a dead end. I have tried running all 4 and tried invidual pairs in each slot, and only when a single matched pair was installed, would the box boot up. I did note a strange reset on having _my original_ pair installed, but in the 2nd bank. I just stuck it back in the first bank and running fine since. Of course, I am now a little irked at MSI that such a limitation exists...now my quandary is to either just upgrade to a newer/different motherboard or just do some sort of return on the additional memory. In a nutshell, don't do it. If you really want to get this memory, get a more capable motherboard for it. Great single matched pair, but forget 4x512 of this with the Neo2.
