16GB of DDR3L RAM is supported by your motherboard.

thanks for the info
what is this exact figure dependent on?
and is 16GB(max) normal or better or less than the mainstream laptops available nowadays?

That is the max amount of RAM that the motherboard can handle. I would say that is about average. Some boards maybe able to take 32GB but thats over kill anyways unless you are doing some hardcore video editing or using other programs that rely heavily on RAM. Otherwise 8-16 will be fine for you.
