I love this line: > All I know is it passes my RAM tests. Since Linux has been working fine with the 16 gigs of RAM installed, I am not too worried. It’s possible I would have problems if I had more PCI/PCIe cards installed or something, but in my use case, it seems to behave fine. Obviously, your mileage may vary I run into this so often. "Look, it works for me. Don't try it at home. Who knows if it keeps working? What can I say I'm going to ride it until the wheels fall off".

Well, it's not like you're in any real danger for trying it, if your system becomes unstable you just take out that extra ram. It's exactly the same as overclocking, your box might not work as stable as before, but you get the extra speed, so thousands of people do it...
