Hello,
what is the limiting factor on memory support? I thought modern CPUs had the memory controller on chip. My logic would thus dictate the CPU determines the amount of RAM usable by the system, not the MB. Why do motherboards list the supported memory? Why does one e.g. socket LGA1366 MB support 24 GBs and another 48 GBs?
Thanks,
