also found this ``P965 Express and other contemporary Intel chipsets did not support 2 gigabit DDR3 chips or higher. So they would work with a 2 GB stick made of 16 chips (so 1 Gb/chip) but not one with 8 chips (2 Gb/chip).

P35 was the first which did to my knowledge. ``

so i would say you're ok with going cheaper route

LGA 1156 doesn't have this problem right?

>1156

damn that's old

i didn't buy any kind of special ram and my i5-750 works fine

It's not older than 775

Which the p35 chipsets is for, also 965

yeah

i really doubt it

how much for that if I may ask?

What? Ram? It's this one Kllisre DDR3 8 GB ram 1600 MHz 240 pinos 1.5 V não-ECC de memória de desktop

(from AliExpress Android)

it's... not a good price

lol

i found same distinction on a polish auction site

🤔

It's 8gb

AMD ram says it works with "VIA, SIS, ATI, AMD chipsets"

doesn't work with "Intel and nForce"

which is

like

older than 1156

ok, I guess with AMD price it would be truly 50% cheaper than locally

Does any seller not do the AMD approved ram bullshit?

i dunno

did you check your local market

actually

this one says a lot more about the issue

Damn

trying to find a datasheet for my i5

This sucks

I found this

http://s.aliexpress.com/eYNNniQV

you should probably find used ram for sale?

hello @spaqin

yes

when i had a 1156 mobo with an i3-530 it was a living hell to find compatible memory

It's a xeon system

oh sorry then, just assumed

give me the model
