Experience and know how of ponder and wesley is truly amazing spotting the the memory issue and linking a list for sandman to ensure he buys the the right memory. Wait that wasn't ponder nor was it wesley. I think ponder and wesley can be the guys who recommend stuff and the rest of us will research the item in question because research and reading reviews seems way better than listening to random forum users claiming they know it all. Why read reviews with ponder around. Just buy and hope he isn't a noob who misses that the board has an issue, not a big issue but an issue that could end badly without the right information.
The list of memory supported by the extreme4, maybe the right memory would have been bought but now you know without a doubt you won't buy the wrong memory. Rather safe than sorry, oddly i picked up the issue reading reviews. Now the experience wesley speaks of is clearly lacking
so let the inexperienced killadoob help out and put effort into pointing it out. I won't however tell you to ignore reviews and buy what i tell you because honestly that i will leave to special people with big heads.

Wesley and ponder the most experienced people to recommend hardware. We all know recommending something is where it ends, no need for reviews to pick up something as silly as memory issues. Thank god for the experience of ponder and wesley, now we know there is a memory issue and we have a list of memory that will work.
Got to say this hardware forum needs pada and a few others back, now pada is someone i would not question because amazingly wesley and ponder he reads reviews and researches using google.com. Anyways maybe this post is not helpful considering how experienced some people are. Experienced in what is the question wesley? Reading facebook instead of reviews or just assuming the motherboard would work with every memory module out there when reviews CLEARLY POINTED IT OUT AS AN ISSUE. Sandman don't bother with my posts dude i think the experience of wesley and ponder is enough.
Ponder:
It has also received very favourable reviews
Yup it has but many folks who didn't read reviews have had to exchange memory or buy new memory because they thought like most motherboards most ram works. If you make the right memory selection you are fine, reviews are very good, extreme 6 gets rave reviews as well, the fatality not really that great. Extreme 6 looks pretty good though as well but the extreme 4 will be amazing and looks incredible, with the right memory it will work at least. Very rare to find a board that supports such a limited range of memory but at least there is a list to work from so it won't be an issue.
Well done ponder and wesley for ensuring sandman didn't have to read reviews because you had it covered 100% with no issues. You guys are truly SPECIAL. Thank goodness there are more than just the two of you in the hardware section.
Pada where you at bro, we need someone who knows his shyte and won't attack someone for pointing out an issue. sandman don't just buy what people tell you unless you know they are good, pada would have told you about this board and linked the supported memory because he would have known about it. Anyways i am done, nice long post just for wesley
. Mwa mr experienced in something, recommendations is not really great wesley. Knowing your shyte is way better but pada will be back to help you.
but google will get you there
