My half built system : Got a Define C loaded with noctua fans in every slot, a nh-d15-se-am4 air cooler waiting to go into action, I even got a nf-f12 PWM fan to replace one of the stock fans (the side mounted one that can interfere with ram) of the cpu cooler, with zip ties, in case it helps guarantee better memory compatibility. I also got a 1000w G3 EVGA waiting to power everything on. I was planning on paying the silicon lottery tax and buying an 1800x as this is my first build in a long time and I want to allow it as much future proofing as possible. No windows on my case so RGB or ugly motherboards are no issue. Its all about basic engineering and performance for me. Also got a 250GB samsung pro ssd for boot, and a 750GB crucial SSD for a few steam games. 

 

 

THE ISSUE : I have been scoping through QVL listings for available and even non available motherboards, and even those that have articles/promo material advertising 64gb@2666 dont seem to have any such ram in their QVL listings. 

 

I am suffering from severe PCMR withdrawals right now, myself, and all my family and relatives are on outdated hardware, and I am willing to start building now, and get a future proof system but I want to at least get the 2666@64gb so I can build once, and then donate the whole build to a loved one when time to upgrade comes knowing it will still be a healthy build down the road.

 

Which motherboard actually has 2666mhz with 4x16 kits ?

 

I am willing to get any ugly ass motherboard, even a b350 one with outdated third world country pci slots. Or I will pay top dollard for the highest end x370.I just cant take all this waiting anymore. Memory prices have gone up and AMD is announcing updates to memory for motherboards only in may. I am getting feverish. Help me get 2666 by 4x16gb recommendations.

 

Oh and before you ask why do I need that much memory TODAY? :

 

Well I was thinking worse case scenario I could take all 4 sticks and split them in two different ITX builds for gifts for my family when time to upgrade comes, and in the meantime I heard running dwarf fortress on a virtual RAM drive yields best performances. 0.o

 

Help!!!!
