Sure you can, although not as good if you had only 2 dimms

@ dybdal
Do you already have the system? Because a P45T-extreme is a waste of money. You should better look for a DDR2 motherboard. Like a P45-UD3P from GA or a P45-TR2S from DFI if you want a high eff.

Also don't go for 2GB graphics cards, it's also a waste.

To be honest, I think your whole system is not so good. If you only pay a little more money you will get a very good i7 system (or you can wait for i5).

actually i have gone to the limit of the X38 chipset with 4 DIMMs at 525 fsb, but of course it all just depends on the hardware itself, like x58 may have some trouble now with 6 DIMMs...

and ya dybdal already has it sadly..... and i already said before that the whole thing was very wasteful but by then he already ordered it.... as long as hes satisfied i guess....
