yes generally it should work , they have many coesair that passed, but you can go up to 1600, also buy by package 2 * 4 or 4*4 not 1 at a time if you can

The RAM support list is a list of those RAM modules which have actually been tested by Foxconn on that board model.
It doesn't mean that any not listed won't work as obviously they couldn't possibly test every RAM module that exists.

The list is compiled really for those people who prefer to "play it safe" and use only RAM which the mobo manufacturer has tested for compatibility. That's fine if you can find RAM with that part number in stock somewhere, but in reality that's often not possible.

the thing is ,that i asked foxconn the same question, and they said that i can "try" to install the ram, i mean they dont say "yeah,,its ok", or "no it;s not".

If Foxconn haven't tested it, they wont commit themselves to a straight "yes" or "no", which is understandable.
