Hi guys!

I need to build a system with a 16GB of RAM (another 16GB to be added in 1-3 few months) for processing some data. I started from this nice Tom's Hardware review: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/990fx-motherboard-review-amd-fx,3464.html
It reviews ASRock 990FX, Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0 and Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3.

I opted to Gigabyte.
I wanted to install 2400MHz RAM modules but I have found out that due to CPU limitations it work at that speed.

Which of the three maindoard is the most suitable for a system that needs plenty of fast RAM?
This is what I intended to build (I already got the mainboard and the CPU from Amazon).

Thanks a lot !
