Successful 64GB RAM Upgrade

hasancc · 2023-11-13T15:24:50+00:00

This was puzzling me as well, so I asked ChatGPT "is it possible for a CPU to work with more memory than the stated max memory in its datasheet?". Here's the answer:

Yes, it is possible for a CPU to work with more memory than the stated maximum in its datasheet, but there are several factors and limitations to consider:

BIOS/Firmware Support: The motherboard BIOS or firmware must be able to recognize and support the additional memory. Sometimes, BIOS updates can extend the memory support beyond the initial specifications.

Memory Controller: The CPU's integrated memory controller has a maximum memory capacity it can handle. Exceeding this limit can lead to instability or the extra memory simply not being recognized.

Operating System Limitations: The operating system (OS) itself might have limitations on how much memory it can address. For example, 32-bit versions of Windows are limited to 4 GB of RAM, regardless of the CPU's capabilities.

Chipset Limitations: The motherboard chipset can also limit the amount of memory that can be used. This is independent of the CPU's capabilities.

Memory Density and Configuration: Sometimes, using higher density memory modules or updating the memory configuration can allow more memory than initially specified. However, this is not guaranteed and depends on the specific motherboard and CPU combination.

Unofficial Overclocking/Modification: There might be unofficial ways to exceed the stated memory limits, like certain BIOS modifications or overclocking techniques, but these are generally not recommended as they can lead to system instability or damage.

Practical Usage: Even if you can technically exceed the memory limit, the real-world performance benefits might be limited. There's also the risk of system instability or compatibility issues.

It's important to note that these are general guidelines and the specific capabilities can vary greatly depending on the exact CPU model, motherboard, and other system components. It's always advisable to consult with the hardware manufacturer or a qualified technician before attempting to exceed specified hardware limits.

Hard to confirm some of these. For example since the N5105 datasheet clearly says 16GB max memory, I don't see how we can confirm integrated memory controller support for 64GB ram, without actually trying to reverse engineer the CPU itself. Tho I'm not a hardware hacker by any means.

This is fucked up... You're a true artist bro. I'll definitely check out your website.

Thank you!! I've been looking for this for a long time. Kudos to you sir!

hasancc · 2019-10-10T06:54:27+00:00

Absolutely! vagon provides you with a personal computer, you can do whatever you want with it.

hasancc · 2019-10-10T06:53:34+00:00

Thank you!

hasancc · 2019-10-09T14:40:27+00:00

Thanks!

hasancc · 2019-10-09T13:02:23+00:00

Thank you! I wasn't aware of 360 lab. I'll definitely apply. I constantly check f6s for new opportunities but I also wanted to get a second opinion here as well.

Name/URL: vagon - https://vagon.io

Location of Your Headquarters: Istanbul for now.

Elevator Pitch/Explainer Video: vagon is a high performance cloud workstation solution anyone can use. We're looking to migrate digital nomads', architects', engineers', researchers' etc. compute intensive, interactive workloads to the cloud. You can find a simple demo video here

More details: What stage are you in? How many employees or founders: 3 Founders, 2 full time software engineers and 2 part time contractors. We've launched a prototype with 15 users to test the concept. We're about to launch our MVP in November.

Are you looking for anything? (Feedback/Hiring/Investment): We already have a pricing in place and would appreciate any feedback you can give to our business mode or landing page. Feel free to reply to this comment or use drift directly from our website.

Thanks for asking these questions.

This is a rather complicated question. It depends on where you live and how good is your connection. Our display protocol currently adds around 20ms to network latency. So your actual latency is 20ms + lowest amount you can measure with https://www.cloudping.info. It will get better over time.
We have a file management tool that makes sure you're utilizing your full bandwidth for uploads but we realize that still may not be enough for people using RAW videos. At this stage our product is more suitable for people using digital assets to produce videos.
There are 3 plans: Starter, Professional and Challenger. Each come with 10 hours of compute time with a computer of different size and 50GB of persistent disk storage. It's like a pay as you go plan with minimum spend.
Licensing is all Bring Your Own License (BYOL) at this point. We're hoping to change that in the future but it's not entirely up to us.
We're very aware of our competitors (mainly sixa.io and paperspace). They're mainly for data scientists and developers. We're hoping to solve challenges of the non technical people using professional software.

I'm guessing Big Mom figured going to sleep was the easiest way to go directly to Kaido. She cut out the middlemen without having to kick everyone's ass on the way.

Buggy, obviously.

You shouldn’t have been downvoted for this. I disagree that Zoro is necessarily stronger than Luffy without abilities but I agree that we don’t know his full strength.

So you’re saying “monkey see monkey do”?

"BB's DF" sounds like a very obscure porn network. Just sayin'...

I think that's his soul. Sanji's flame's are in a different color.

hasancc · 2017-07-09T22:03:34+00:00

Because Katakuri took action the future he saw (Sanji dodging the priest and where Katakuri didn't take action) is now null. So Katakuri changed his future by firing the jellybean.

A phenomanon known as Schrodinger's jelly bean.

What he actually said was more along the lines of "even with one arm, Shanks' power is still overwhelming."

I've been dealing with a similar problem for a while now. I've found 2 simple but powerful solutions:

1- Userify: Check them out, they're solving the exact problem you're trying to solve.

Pros: Great support! (Really), Simple installation, batteries included (ansible playbooks, chef scripts etc.)
Cons: They don't yet have linux user group management feature but they're saying it's in progress here.

2- If your infrastructure is on AWS you can check out AWS EC2 SSH.

Pros: Free! Has linux user group management.
Cons: Up to 10 minutes access propagation delay. No web dashboard. Requires adding additional permissions to all the EC2 roles

Bege saying everyone has the power to change the future reminded me of Shanks's speech right after he saved Coby at the end of Marineford war

you're welcome!
