 Will mtrr failing result in stability or performance loss?  Is there any 
 performance loss disabling memory remap in bios other than losing 600k?  thx

 Is this happening because the chipset only supports 8gb of memory and
 therefore mtrr cannot remap memory above 8gb? (assuming not since
 problem did not exist in 5.x centos)

There was a recent forum thread [1] on this issue.  Unfortunately it was 
never cleanly resolved, but you may find some suggestions there.  It 
seems that unmatched memory modules may be a cause.

I have all the same modules. I can get rid of it by disabling memory remap in 
bios and lose 600k but I am unclear if any functionality and/or performance 
will be lost.Reading different threads on the net it looks like a stab in the 
dark, seems allot of people are hitting a dead end.Thoroughly lost reading the 
mrtrr kernel docs.
