Question Foxconn H61MXL-K max memory in 1 slot

I have this mobo, and yes its old, but the max memory it can handle is 16 gigs
Will it take 1x16gb ddr3-1333 module?

Is one of the RAM slots broken? Your performance will be significantly impacted by a single DIMM.

You are robbing your CPU of 1/2 the memory bandwidth it was designed for. I would not recommend a single DIMM setup.

Oh

The max memory for that board is 16GB so should be 8GB sticks max also.
