- xtreemcom.com: Hey George, you said the p55 controller gives more headroom? That's a bonus given the cheaper price. Or do you mean because of dual-channel v tri-channel?
  eva2000: It's more due to design of P55 vs X58. X58 has uncore frequency requirements (uncore needs to be 2x mem frequency) and uncore on air/water is usually limited to around 4000mhz which means DDR3-2000Mhz mem frequency is usually the normal ceiling unless you push way higher cpu vtt/uncore volts and vdimm as well as colder cpu cooling (sub zero cpu cooling on x58 helps much higher ram clocks). P55 doesn't have such requirement so uncore frequency stays much lower to X58 uncore frequency even when memory is overclocked. Dual vs Triple channel is also part of the reason but not so much…

GeIL Evo One 12GB DDR3-1600 Hexa kit – Yeah, you read that right, 12GB DDR3-1600 kit… and amazingly it achieves that speed at CAS7! Performance comparable, or better, than a 3 or 6GB tripple-channel kit but with 12GB. If you are running media compression, VMs or hardcore graphics, this looks to be a kit worth considering
