Hi All, Thought I would let those that are interested know that I had success in running 24G on an Asus P6T with 24G kit of Kingston DDR3. While I was putting this together I saw lots of forum posts asking if anyone had tried it. Well we did here at our work and all looks great including running "memtest86" overnight. I have a fluid dynamics simulation running on it with 90% memory usage and all looks great.
