My mobo supports more than 8GB of RAM???

[Hnesto986532]

I've an ASROCK N68 VS3 UCC. The mobo specs tells that "Support up to 8GB" in the Memory specs. This mobo supports up to DDR3 1600 SDRAMs. I found some kits of 16 GB (2x8GB) of DDR3 1600 like Kingston HyperX Fury 16gb kit DDR3 1600MHz. Those kits will work on my mobo?

Actually I'm using a single DDR3-800 2GB Memory .-.

Probably not. If you motherboard spec says 8GB then the 16GB kit probably won't work.

Dual Channel DDR3 memory technology
- 2 x DDR3 DIMM slots
- Supports DDR3 1600/1333/1066/800 non-ECC, un-buffered memory
- Max. capacity of system memory: 8GB*

*Due to the operating system limitation, the actual memory size may be less than 4GB for the reservation for system usage under Windows® 32-bit OS. For Windows® 64-bit OS with 64-bit CPU, there is no such limitation.

And the 8GB needs to be in a 2x4GB config (8GB stick won't work) - also the mobo is designed towards low density memory chips (2Gb memory chips). The newer models of DRAM use high density 4Gb chips, might look at GSkill's F3-10600CL9D-8GBNT
