I just ordered an LGA 2011 socket mobo and 4x4GB quad channel memory. I'm looking to find a site that shows how I can best use more memory.

I will probably order another 4x4GB sticks to bring my total system memory to 32GB but I first want to find a way to use it. Looking for tutorials or guides for enthusiast users. Already looking into making ram-disks, but other ideas would be appreciated.

Any other sites or tutorials to explain other cool things that you can do with lots of excess system memory?

OP here, ty for the information. I didn't realize that it was possible to have a persistent ramdisk. I went ahead and ordered more ram to in order to use 8 of the 32gb as a ramcache and 16 gigs as a persistent ramdisk. The benchmarks show significant improvements using this and a SSD.

Very helpful. If you have any more suggestions to further increase performance using SSD or ram software let me know.
