    This has been discussed and resolved recently. Look through the threads about running 96GB of RAM.
     
    6x8GB will generally work just fine if you use registered DIMMs.

    Crucial 12x 8GB x4 DR 1.35V DDR3-1600 ECC RDIMMs (96GB)

    registered dimms means full buffered dimms .

    No. Registered DIMMs only have the control lines buffered. FB DIMMs have both control and data lines buffered.

    AFAIK only Registered ECC DIMMs have been tried. You will need to use dual ranked modules if you plan to upgrade to 96GB. I use Crucial ones.
