it theoretically supports up to 768 (3 x 256), but a lot of bh6 users including myself have experienced problems when all three dimm slots are used. usually only 2 work at a time.

Nice nice :)

I am aware of the 3 DIMM = trouble thingy... but i tested mine with 3 dual sided 128MB sticks. Worked like a charm in Win2k :)

thanks for the reply all :)
