 right in the socket would be fine if the new SR-2 comes with.. 8 x 8GB Dimm Sockets, or 4 x 16GB DIMM Sockets for ways to become more efficient at work in video and musicproduction. Samsung has made their 16GB Modules..

Huh? Are these even in production yet?
The SR-2 can already work with 8gb ram modules I think.

It can use 8GB modules cause Fitseries3 is using them.

See this thread: http://forums.evga.com/tm.aspx?m=572780 Nobody has tested/reported back on the 16GB modules yet. evga24

To complete a perfect EVGA System, we need two things..
1. The SR-2 Board with a full range of 64GB Ram (today only 48GB)
2. The SR-2 Power Supply 1200W... Water Cooled ! (with no Fan)

Full range of 64Gb ram ?? don't you mean 96 Gb (12x 8GB).
The next step! Up!

IIRC, the 5520 chipset can support up to 192 gigs of ram. Since it has 12 ram slots (right?) then 12 x 16 gig modules = 192 ram.

64GB are more than enough.

Hello,
It is not necessarily a property of the chipset that will supporta certain level of memory supported, as the memory controller is on the Xeon CPU's
at this time 16GB modules are not supported on the board.
Thank you

best way is.. The new SR-2 has 16 240-pin slots ( 2 x 8) for DDR3 DIMMs. 2 x 8 not 2 x 6 16 x 2GB = 32GB 16 x 4GB = 64GB 16 X 8GB = 128GB

The MB design could in theory have 2 x 9 (18slots) - 3 DIMMs * 3 channels * 2 processors. 2 x 8 wouldn't make sense -- the memory wouldn't be balanced. The combination of CPUs and chips can theoretically support 288GB (for systems with 18 slots and 16GB DIMMs). BTW, "Not supported" from EVGA for 16GB DIMMs might be different than "Doesn't work". I'm surprised nobody has tested this yet... evga24

2 x 8 not 2 x 6
16 x 2GB = 32GB
16 x 4GB = 64GB
16 X 8GB = 128GB

There will be two versions of Sandy Bridge in the 1-2 processor space; 'EN' and 'EP'. EN will be based on the enthusiast desktop chip the way the current 5-series Xeons are, and will have 3 DDR channels. An SR-3 based on that will almost certainly have the same 12 DIMM slots as the SR-2. The EP is essentially a cut down version of the EX high-end server chip and has four DDR channels. An SR-3 based on that would indeed have sixteen DIMM slots, but since those chips will be very expensive and probably not as highly clocked or overclockable as the EN chips, I expect the SR-3 will be a Sandy-Bridge-EN solution with twelve slots.
Incidentally the EN version has 24 PCIe 3.0, enough to drive two x16 and two x8 slots directly from the CPUs. At least one PCIe switch chips would presumably be necessary to fan out to the other three slots and support quad SLI / Crossfire. The EP version would be awesome, as it has 40 PCIe 3.0 lanes per CPU! That's enough to drive a 16/8/16/x/16/8/16 configuration directly from the CPUs (using lanes off the northbridge for the seventh slot), eliminating the crappy slow hot board-space-consuming NF-100 chips entirely. Though I guess those are completely obsolete anyway with PCIe 3.0.
