Hi,

I reverted the commit on top of current master, and now my KGPE-D16 fully works without MC4 errors in both 1-CPU-package und 2-CPU-package configurations - that is, with all 16 memory slots populated with the 8GB DDR3L Samsung RDIMMs (PC12800 variant) mentioned in my initial post.

I have some more DIMMs I could test with if this would help:
- 2x Samsung 2GB 8500R
- 6x Crucial Ballistix Sport (non-RDIMMs, 4 of them have issues in another vendor bios running at the clock specified in the SPD)

Yep, will do so!
