I understand the official limits say 64GB, but some devices have been conservative. I have a 5950x unit that can actually handle 128GB. Anyone know? (I need more memory for math work and without it, I’m stuck on dataset size or algorithms)

Yes, based on past experience, adding faster 4x32GB sticks improves performance. It should detect at least 64GB and boost the frequency accordingly.

Just use two 32Gb sticks if that’s the plan. You could give it a shot, though I wouldn’t do it myself.

Seems like there is a chance, according the Reddit thread. I managed to run larger than specs RAM many years back (I bought the sticks without checking, I guess I was lucky) and wondered whether it was a fluke or could still happen. If I try it, I'll let you know how it went, thanks!

Hello, confirming the ASRock X470 Master SLI supports 128GB RAM. I recently added Corsair Vengeance LPX 128GB (4x32GB) DDR4 3200MHz C16 to the motherboard, and it has booted up successfully the first time. It performs well during intensive video editing tasks.
