Does anyone know how it works if you purchase the Bittware version since the defaults is w/no memory installed?  Can you purchase your own DDR memory to install, and if so what kinda?

The following is offered from Bittware, but what is recommended?

R4 = DDR4 16GB RDIMM
R5 = DDR4 32GB RDIMM
R7 = DDR4 128GB RDIMM
L5 = DDR4 32GB LRDIMM
L6 = DDR4 64GB LRDIMM
Q4 = Dual QDRII+ x18 144Mb
Q5 = Dual QDRII+ x18 288Mb


My Bittware board has no external memory, and I will add either standard PC DDR4, or Bittware QDR-SRAM, as needed in the future; only Ravencoin (DDR4), Bitcore (DDR4) and Equihash (QDR) need external memory.  Cryptonight7 would, although I haven't examined it in depth.  Phi, Keccak, SHA-224, Tribus, X17, Lyra2v2, Neoscrypt, Xevan; no external memory needed.
