Title: Memory list
Post by: Lord Humongous NOS on July 05, 2012, 09:50:36 pm

Does anyone know where a list or thread is about memory that has been tried and/or tested on a GA-P55A-UD3. I've searched till I'm blue in the face. I'm looking at buying G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL10Q-32GBZL. It is not on the memory list from Gigabyte.us http://download.gigabyte.us/FileList/Memory/mb_memory_ga-p55a-ud3.pdf (http://download.gigabyte.us/FileList/Memory/mb_memory_ga-p55a-ud3.pdf) In fact the mobo is supposed to run 32GB but there is no 8GB chips listed at all.



I have:
GV-R467ZL-1GI video card
Corsair SSD drive
i7 2.93 GHz CPU
Corsair 750watt PS
Windows 7/64bit

Hi and welcome.

Normally the best place to look for a QVL (Qualified Vendors List) is on the manufacturer's website. Most makes have one and if you input your motherboard it will give you a list of compatible memory modules.

I did that but there seams to be little support for this mobo.

I believe Dark Mantis meant to check the memory manufacturer's list.

Thanks a bunch guys. The chip I was going to buy was not recomended buy that list, but it showed my one that would. I found it at newegg for about the same price.
