This one is quite tricky and I can't find any decent information source/documentation.
I have Gigabyte motherboard from 2008: Gigabyte MA770T-UD3P rev. 1.0.
It has 4 RAM slots and total limit of RAM of 16 GB.
My question is - what if I buy 2 8 GB sticks. Will they work? Because if there's limit of 16 GB, it gives 4 GB per slot. How does motherboard RAM limits work, is it slot-dependent or more likely this is the top limit of chipset so even 16 GB stick would work?
I've been looking for info about AMD 770 chipset itself but I can't find any public documentation anywhere.
There's memory support list for my mobo, but it's really outdated.
Any ideas, hints, anything? :)
Thanks a lot!
1Check the manual for the motherboard for supported memory configurations. 2 8GB is unlikely to work. – Ramhound – 2014-05-11T13:30:11.937
