For my friend with £3k budget

[JogaBonito1502]

not 8 gig on a ddr3 tri channel motherboard, it goes up in increments of three, so its 6 gig max i think, may be wrong thoguh

The X58 accepts up to 12GB of RAM in 6 slots. So 2GB per slot.

@OP: What i7 processor will your friend be getting? Is he an OC'er? That system is a beast.

Ill be overclocking it for him, and thanks for the ram info, ill mention in to him because he will want to upgrade somtime

 

[_-..zKiLLA..-_]

[newbie1323]

OH yeah, just noticed, well he's getting the extreme one, letting me have some overclocking fun. and that is included in the price

The 3x3GB sticks = 9GB.. Do you mean 3x2GB?

Well. I donno if I could even come close to spending that much. I couldn't bring myself to do it unless I had maybe $100,000 to spend. If not I couldn't bring myself to spend that much on a computer. Most I would spend is $2500 Canadian

He does have a LOT to spend, i woudnt do it for myself though, mak 1.5k
