so i have a qx6850 cpu and my motherboard died. i ordered a intel x38bt extreme motherboard it support ddr3 in x8 dimms up to 8 gbs (ill link product pages) 

 

i have a samsung 2x4gb kit of ddr3 1333mhz at 1.5 volts with x8 config.

If it is Dual Sided (16 chips per module, with 8 chips per module side), it should work (I recommend updating BIOS to latest available).
