Which type of RAM does my A68HM GRENADE motherboard support?

[willcovero]

Hello everyone
I have a problem with my A68HM GRENADE motherboard.
I would like to know what kind of RAM I can put.
I know it has a maximum of 32 GB and I have now installed an 8GB RAM CORSAIR ADVANCE
even if my brand of RAM there are no 16GB banks.
I would like to know which other type of RAM I can install in my PC instead of mine, so I hope someone can help me. Thanks


P.S: I know that my motherboard can support RAM with 1333 MHz, 1600 MHz, 1866 MHz, 2133 MHz frequency and has 240 pins.

This is the memory support list for your board

https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/A68HM-GRENADE#support-mem

Stick to this list and you are good. No 16gb kits are listed but if you find the 8gb version of a kit you can usually cross it on the manufacturer website to find the 16gb kit.

Supported memory speed depends on your choice of processor.

They likely never tested a 32gb kit. Why do you need 32gb of ram, its a huge waste of money unless you need it for a specific task. 16gb is the norm for gaming and productivity.

it's the same RAM that I installed to my pc.
I would like to know another RAM that is compatible for my pc.
In fact I have only 1 RAM with this code CMZ16GX3M2A1600C9 and probably my seller has removed a ram before selling the pc

If it works already that part number I would buy it then. They don't test every ram and I don't know everything that would work outside the list off the top of my head. So if you have already used it then use it again.

thanks for the help, I still wanted to know other ram that my motherboard supports and that it costs less

The only way to find that is to go through the list I linked and see if you can find any thats less expensive. There really is no other way, to then also be sure it works.
