Received an 8x8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2666 MHz system with the 1950X TR. Initial boot had slight problems. Linux partition isn’t showing up on dual boot, possibly due to CSM or FastBoot settings. At default configurations I’m seeing only 2133 MHz, and any attempt at overclocking via EZTuning doesn’t yield results. Seeking advice from memory specialists about achievable top speeds with proper tuning. If you upgrade to a new 128GB DIMM module, can you expect around 3200 MHz? Also, are there other recommendations besides the usual vendor suggestions? Some users report issues getting 128GB RAM to function at any speed, which raises concerns. I’ve seen posts warning that AMD doesn’t provide memory dividers for speeds like 3000 or 3400 MHz, possibly contributing to this problem. Thanks for any insights!

You're unlikely to reach full 3200 speed; most setups will likely cap around 2400-2666 max.

There is proof that some runs reach 3200 on an x399 board.

Focusing on practical needs, I’m curious about the purpose behind having 128GB of RAM. It’s not about bragging—it’s about understanding why such a large amount would be useful for specific tasks or applications.

The choice of 128GB stems from simulation needs for realistic visual effects. We're aiming for millions of particles with smooth real-time rendering. The reference points highlight compatibility with the 2933 module, though confirmation is required. The source material comes from GSKILL support, noting the importance of verifying performance differences between models.

I power my rig with a 96GB system, split into six 16GB modules running at 3200Mhz. It performs excellently. The RAM model is G-skill AEGIS with 16-18-18-38 timings.
