Can it hold full load of 64md on to this motherboard will it have any problem with it.

To install 64 mb ram do gig thing this moerboard will not have any problem can hold it full 64mb ram.

Yup, you just have to buy the two 8GB ram sticks and replace the two 4GB ram sticks currently in the computer. However, there are only 2 RAM slots, so you wont be able to have four 4GB sticks, but instead 2 8GB RAM sticks

Hi Deborah, the 8 chips are really not important, what is important is that the one you received is 2GB 1066MHz DDR3 Non-ECC SODIMM. Here is a link to someone doing the upgrade http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_FiUCfyiQw the one he is installing is 2GB and only 4 chips. Side note: as technology progresses memory manufactures are able to get more memory on a single chip; usually at a lower cost. The 8 chip version has 256MB per chip and the 4 chip version has 512MB per chip (or 256MiB and 512MiB to be technically correct).

I was able to install Windows 7 without issues on this board. I agree with casselkid, I doubt is the board. I'm more inclined to think is a bad RAM. Try installing with only one memory stick, if fails, try another.

This memory should work in your computer. HP / Compaq specs ( http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02623676&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=5049573#N318) call for 240-pin DDR3-1066 / 1333, unbuffered, non-error correcting code memory. You cannot take advantage of more than 4 GB of memory unless you're using a 64-bit operating system (Windows or other). Your system has two motherboard system memory "sockets" (connectors), each of which will accept memory cards up to 4 GB in size, for a total of not more than 8 GB memory. I'd advise against leaving the existing 2 GB DIMM (dual inline memory module) installed when adding new memory; system operation is usually better using either a single DIMM, or a pair of "matched" DIMMs (modules of identical manufacture and part number). Finally, if you have questions like this, I'd suggest you look up your computer's specs, as I did, before asking for information from strangers who may or may not know much about your topic of interest. Good luck!

The 3 x 2gb ram sticks would function fine on this mother board. They would not run quad channel, but would function likely faster than you need. If you found another 2gb stick similar enough to the 3 you have it may run quad channel-MAY is the key word. Even the same exact part number is not guaranteed to run quad channel with your three ram stick. Chances are any ram that is the same spec would run quad, but the memory makers give no promises unless it is a quad channel set/kit. I think that is mostly to sell more costly kits to consumers.

Yes, this board supports up to 64GB of DDR3 up to 2400 Mhz, (although I believe Asus recommends max of 1866) but of course, only with 64 bit system. I just finished my build of new system with this board last week and am so far very pleased with all the features it offers, particularly the UEFI bios and the accompanying AI Suite3 software that allows extensive changes to system both in bios and in Windows.

According to the Asus site it will work Just fine.This is your motherboards memory specs. Number of Memory Slots:4×240pinMemory Standard:DDR3 2133(O.C.)/1866/1600/1333/1066Maximum Memory Supported:32GBChannel Supported:Dual Channel

best thing to do is go to msi web site and if not there ask on the board. if it is not listed on kingston or msi site then it is not fully supported.

If you want to upgrade from 4GB of Ram to 8GB of Ram make sure you purchase one DDR3L memory stick. If you do not get the chip with L at end of DDR3 it won't work. You only need one chip to upgrade, that's what I did. I now have 8GB of RAM/

DDR2 memory requires an AM2 CPU. *DDR3 and DDR2 are supported separately. **DDR3 memory is only supported by installing AM3/AM3+ CPU. ***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. ****DDR2 memory is only supported by installing AM2/AM2+/AM3 CPU. *****Support with AM3 / AM2+ CPU. http://www.asrock.com/mb/NVIDIA/N68C-GS%20FX/?cat=Specifications

G.Skill memory, while fantastic, is not compatible with this board. Check out Memorystock or some other similar site for memory that will work. I have had exactly the same issues myself. Once I got compatible memory it fired up like a champ.

If memory serves me correctly, these sticks will work with the latest I-7 chip to date when I ordered my set. I am running the AM3+ socket (AMD cpu) but the Mobo baby sits itself for the most part as far as initial settings. Do be careful to notice that the frequency of the ram is going to be listed for it's capable of on the stick but if you enter BIOS and see lower then the box states don't flip out. There is always a reason for this and it is usually due to the fact that the ram will only go as fast as the board allows with the initial stepping and voltage settings. If you want faster try the included automatic over clocking software included with the motherboard. :-) I hope this has helped.

According to ASUS specs this should be an 8 gb max ram while retailing at 4gb. It is true that the two available slots are occupied. However, that should not stop one from upgrading by replacing the 2gb x 2 to 4gb x 2. I have ordered one and have talked to asus tech support which says it is possible and the complete line up has an 8gb max by default

I have installed win 7 64bit and it works fine. About DDR3 I am not sure I use DDR2 that were originally installed in the machines.

I do not have experience with this memory. It is not on Asus compatibility list for the motherboard, but http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-memory-cmy16gx3m2a2400c11r suggests others have used it successfully. Crucial's website suggests http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/z9pe-d8-ws/CT3472783 for this motherboard. The manual suggests the motherboard can be set to accept this memory speed.

Memory becomes a fanboy issue, I've never had ram fail, and have used Corsair, Crucial, Patriot, Mushkin, Kingston ... currently I'm running 4 sticks of Patriot IEM Viper 3 @2133mhz
