I've got a customer who upgraded three systems using another brand
motherboard, stuck in 4 gig of ram, and ran smack into the
"motherboard mapping stuff into the memory space" bit.
Having used Supermicro boards before and having been satisfied with
them; also, knowing that Supermicro has Xeon boards that can support
up to 16GB of memory; and not being able to get a straight answer from
our local Intel rep, I ask this:
Would a server board (say, built around an E7501 chipset) exhibit the
same problem? If one were to put 4GB of memory in, would the system
actually see (and use) 4 gigs?
