EVGA nForce 790i ULTRA SLI 132-CK-NF79-A1 + Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650 SLAWN C1 Stepping as in the photo Serial L808A967 + Corsair Dominator DDR3 16Gb CMT8GX3M2A2000C9 ver5.11 Serial number 110803529 4pcs 4Gb + Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme LGA775

Any questions in a personal message.

This is the only very rare memory model with the same serial numbers, which works with 16Gb of memory with the EVGA nForce 790i ULTRA SLI 132-CK-NF79-A1, since it is documented to be 8Gb, but this memory runs fine at 16Gb.

Well, I decided to see what happens, I bought 2 of the 8GB Dominator GT DDR 3 2000 kits ( CMT8GX3M2A2000C9 )
 
I will get 8 stable in one machine, then see if I can get to 16, or have to stop at 10 or 12...
 
Running a 790i Board with a 9770. I intend to run the CPU at 3.6, instead of the stock 3.2
 
Will report the results!

From that other thread - I am running this:
 
2 of the 8GB Dominator GT DDR 3 2000 kits ( CMT8GX3M2A2000C9 )
 
On a 790i @ 1600 Mhz with a 9770 CPU just fine. I can dig up the post with the specs that I'm running at, but I've had them in there quite a while without a problem. 16 GB is nice!
