Title: cheapest 64gb ram for dual 2670 build
Post by: karklinskarlis1993 on 2016-11-20, 22:25:30

good morning,

first of all - thanks for your blog, Juraj, as i managed to build for myself as well. awesome machine and corresponding CB score of 2026cb.

motherboard: Asrock EP2C602-4L/D16 (great mobo for great deal 400euros)

for now, i am using it with my previous ram sticks (corsair vengeance ddr3 32gb kit of 4, 1866mhz) which seems really unstable and gives me blue screens randomly. i can assure, these sticks are healthy, but lacks compability for motherboard used.

i am looking for cheapest deal on europes ebay with atleast 64gb ram. as i read, Juraj Talcik got deal of 64gb for 80euros. i was wondering, how is it even possible as what i have found costs for about 300euros containing 64gb of server dedicated ram..

i would really use some help finding cheapest sticks... can anybody take a look and give some samples?

Know what kind of RAM you wish for, as not all are made equal... and they DO NOT MIX!
Few things to keep in mind:
1. Know CPU specs & RAM supported
2. Know MoBo specs & RAM supported
3. ECC memory (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECC_memory): NO (cheap) or YES (expensive)
4. Registered/Unregistered memory (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Registered_memory): RDIMM (cheap) or UDIMM (expensive)
...
5. Seek for the best price

PS
Ups... I assumed you are familiar with the frequencies and latency

Seems that the overall price has gone up for both cpus and memory.
Just search ebay for "registered ecc 64gb ddr3" and then look for kits with 8x8Gb. Around 130euros there are multiple options ;)

thanks for reply mates

so..  if these cheap server sticks are not listed in this particular mobos support list? should it be fine anyways? as i am terrified because of crashing on desktop rams (i can assure these desktop sticks are 100% correct and functional), this board looks really grumpy

i found these ones,

Just ask the seller, they might know if any of their ram is compatible with your board ;)
