x58 and more than 16gb of ram.

[Hyraelle]

Hi, i have just installed an other set of 12gb ram. Like expected it only shows 16gb of 24. Looked again the linus video about this, enabled the memory protect config. still not fixed. I wonder if there are anything else that can make this not working?

All 6 are detected, look the screenshot
