MSI Z390-A Pro and 128GB Ram

[Tufi]

Hello,

 

Does anybody own an MSI Z390 A Pro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard with maxed 128GB RAM? If so, did you need a BIOS update or some other type of special configuration done prior to utilizing 32 GB RAM DIMMS?

 

If not, can anybody recommend motherboards that support 4x32GB sticks without the need for special configurations?

 

CPU: Intel Core i5-9400 2.9 GHz 6c/6t

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (1x32GB) DDR4-2666

Why are you attempting to use 128GB of ram with an i5? That sounds like a horrible investment and a very stupid idea lol. 

 

Otherwise no it should work right out of the box, although the i5 is limited to the 2666 speeds.

You didn't really answer any of my questions. I am looking for concrete, anecdotal facts. "It should work", doesn't cut it.

Well then thats just too bad. Based off the Specs sheet of both the motherboard and CPU, it should work just fine, unless theres a dead Ram chip, Ram slot bad memory controller etc it should work just fine. Cannot Guaranteee anything, not how life works bud
