Win10-Hater Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 Is there any Ivy Bridge (or Sandy Bridge) CPU that supports 1866 MHz DDR3 RAM? According to Intel listings, even the fastest Sandy and Ivy Bridge Mobile Extreme i7's support only up to 32 GB DDR3 RAM at 1333 MHz and upto 16 GB DDR3 RAM at 1600 MHZ. Does this mean the system simply won't detect 1866 MHz RAM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this mean the system simply won't detect 1866 MHz RAM? The 8770W unofficially supports 32GB 1866MHz, it detects what the RAM is rated for, so you can overclock it by flashing a higher rating to it. 2133MHz is when it gets unstable. I'd like to know if it can work with 64GB of DDR3 with 4x16GB DIMMs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jody Thornton Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) I had used Vista with an HP xw8200 workstation, running with 7 GB off DDR2 RAM, and two Xeon 3.68 GHz CPUs. The system had two 73 GB Fijitsu U320 SCSI disks at 10 K RPM. Edited December 18, 2020 by Jody Thornton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win10-Hater Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) I'm asking this purely out of curiosity: How many of you Vista users who have read this forum topic have tested Vista betas? If any of you have done so, please share your experience with Vista betas. Edited December 21, 2020 by Win10-Hater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vista in 2005-2006 ??? Are you sure ? All stores were stuffed with XP computers . Vista RTM was released in 2007 . I had tried longhorn with 2007 MSI mobo , chipset G31 , it went okay . Unfortunately I forgot the build number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I forgot the build number , like can't remember at all , sorry . But I remember I just switched BIOS to IDE mode (before install) and didn't have any troubles .

Win10-Hater Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 Then it maybe a pre-reset build (4039 or 4074 or 4093)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main important thing before install just switch your BIOS to IDE mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
