2 questions for the sake of knowledge
1 can you oc buffered, registered or ecc ram

Both support OC'ing of RAM CPU and GPU.

 

They're not all running at 16x - 4-way runs at 16x/8x/8x/8x.

 

As far as ECC ram OC'ing, I'd imagine you could but since stability is the reason to get ECC, there'd be no logical reason to OC ECC.

if you check the site for each mb you will find them both saying 4 way sli 16x/16x/16x/16x on 40 lane cpu

lol well the slots are x16 but the CPU's cant support more than x40 all together.

Plx chip perhaps?

idk how it works i know that 40 lane cpu works 16x/8x/8x/8x but they say all of them are 16x thats why i asked i wanted to know how it works
