Pros: Plugged in 8 sticks (128GB total) onto a ASUS Z9PE-D16 and it booted up without issue. The sticks say DDR3-1600 speed and that is exactly what the system recognized.

Cons: None.

Pros: Fits SM's X9DR3-F. FYI people, there are two LGA2011 sockets. *NARROW* LGA2011 socket = 56mm x 94mm *SQUARE* LGA2011 socket = 80mm x 80mm This R14 cooler is ONLY FOR THE *NARROW* LGA2011 socket Measure your LGA2011 mounting holes from each other and if it's equally spaced at 80mm then you have a SQUARE LGA2011 socket and this R14 will NOT fit!

Cons: PWM fan is VERY LOUD at full speed. So if you are running heavy CPU loads for long times, just be forewarned, that it WILL get loud. However at idle it is extremely quiet.
