128GB memory for Zenith Extreme 2950X

I know Asus has a compatibility sheet of ram for the Zenith Extreme, but I can't help feeling its an outdated list and doesn't include any of the new ram releases specifically made to support the Threadripper CPU. Also the list has almost no 128gb kits listed with any decent speed, and I really need 128gb of ram.

Has anyone got any recommendations, something they know will work with the Zenith Extreme Motherboard on 2950X ?
For instance the Trident Z 128gb kit tailored for the Threadripper with 2933 MHZ, will it work? -and will it work with the listed speed of 2933Mhz ? (this kit: F4-2933C14Q2-128GTZRX or F4-2933C16Q2-128GTZRX ) - Anyone has it and used it for 1950X?

Currently I have a corsair kit of 128gb (which corsair said worked with Threadripper) but I gave up trying to make it work with all 128gb, so now the machine runs with 6 slots and 96GB of ram at 2400Mhz, which is stable. But I want more and faster ram once the new Threadripper CPU lineup comes out.

Any help appreciated!

THanks! no problems with that at all ? Did you have to set custom voltage or change any latency from default ?

2 will preform much better then 8 -- the more channels you add the worse the memory timings become

But you cannot buy 2 slots of 64gb each 🙂
