will this MB support the 16g memory from Corsair

I used a pair of "Kingston HyperX XMP Blu Red Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 Desktop Memory Model KHX16C10B1RK2/16X" and it works for my configuration. I will believe Corsair 16GB 1600 memory will work too. Normally, you will want to MB compability list of vendors when you try to use O'C' memory beyond 1600 speed. -R

It should. I used Samsung low profile ram for its overclockability and because it is more compatible with larger cpu coolers

I purchased this board with corsair memory, and it did NOT work. I'm not sure about your model of ram, but my corsair vengeance 8 gb dimms were not compatible. Call Asus first, and make sure your ram works with this motherboard.

Yes it will. I'm running 16 gb of 1800 gskill memory right now. As for corsair yes as well. Any of the major players in memory will work. The board only has 2 memory slots though ay you will need 8 gb stic.

I appreciate all the responses people.I've corresponded with Corsair customer service and they assured me that these memory chips will work with the aforementioned board.They even said that the higher density sticks (32 GB) will work as well.I hope they're right.

It has 4 slots so you should be good. I'm running 2x4gb of 1866. It runs at 1600 but I'm told I can change that in the bios easily.

Call Corsair. 1 (888) 222-4346 (Consumer). Reason. Gigabyte as well as other boards may advertise compatibility with ultra high speed memory, but they have NO control over various memory manufacturer technical issues. I learned yesterday a Gigabyte board I worked on supported only 4 brands of a specific high speed memory. Calling them can save you a big headache. Also, Check out this URL: http://www.corsair.com/en/support/faqs/memory. It has relevant AMD info you need.

The motherboard supports a total of 128GB of RAM. So that would allow you to put a 16GB module into every DIMM slot.

yes, becouse that main board have The dual channel architecture supports 32GB of DDR3 1866/1600/1333/1066 MHz ECC, Non-ECC, Un-buffered Memory.

Yes, I upgraded mine with Corsair's Vengeance 8GB kit. The drawback is that your original is to be taken out. You can however get just one 4GB stick and upgrade it, but it is always better to have a matching RAM.

I got this package and it works fine. Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory (CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10)

I have a set of 8GB (totaling 16GB) Corsair Vengeance LP clocked at 1600mh/z and it works fine for me, you can even change the mh/z on the mobo bios which has tons to choose from.

the vendor may be Intel orientated and if this is the case may not have experience or knowledge of this high spec memory within an AMD system. Polite query may resolve your concern. However Corsair will have determined usage within test environment in order to state such compatability.

Aloha Alvaro Yes Corsair is very compatible I'm amazed how their memory is compatible across so many mother boards. Hope this answer's your question!

I bought 2x4gb 1600mhz RAM for this board and it shows up running at 1600mhz. I believe the Gigabyte website had RAM info somewhere on their website.

We have 2-4gig & 1-8gig (all corsair blue) running in a server with an Asus mb. Most newer mbs support mixed memory fine. Some perform a little better with memory in pairs, so just in case, I would check the mb docs & put the 4g pair in the lower slots. Another suggestion is to run benchmark or Windows experience with only the 4g pair, then only the 8g.

Using the same memory (Corsair XMS3), you should be able to to use 2-2GB sticks with 2-4GB sticks, for a total of 12GB of memory. Be sure to balance the memory in the A and B slots as per your manual. As Bret mentioned go to the Corsair site to find if the memory is compatible with your motherboard.

Yes it will work with your mother board but you may want to look into trident 2400 mhz X series because it's faster than the 1866 mhz. And your board is compatible with so you'll get much better performance. But the Corsair will work and work well.

Hello, It appears the MB can take a maximum of 32GB. I am using only 2 DIMMs of 8GB for a total of 16GB. It has 4 slots.Hope it helps.

It does work. I purchased the Asus P8Z77 - V with the Corsair 16 GB memory kit (4x4). My problem is that the 3rd and 4th RAM slots on the MB were DOA.
