Hi,
Building a new system, Xeon based and researching the net about the types of RAM I could use. I stumbled upon an article that states
quote:"Users who have high performance needs of DDR3 RDIMMs must be aware of, when you populate more than one PC3L-low voltage RDIMM per memory channel, a DDR3-1333 speed DIMM will clock down to DDR3-1066 memory speed. However, the 1.5V standard voltage DDR3 counterpart will run at the full DDR3-1333 memory speed with 2 RDIMMs per channel in Xeon 5650 or higher based servers. Performance users are better off selecting standard 1.5V RDIMMs when populating up to 12 RDIMMs in a 2-way server." end of quote.
Here is the link to the full article which dates Dec 11th 2011

The company looks like a very reputable source of info.
The memory I need is DDR3-1600/1866Mhz RDIMMs
What do you guys think about that? I couldn't find the same info anywhere else but there are more experts here that could answer the question.
