I read conflicting reports maximum RAM. Here it says 32gb but other reviews says that 16gb is the max. Which is it?

The answer is yes 32Gb is a go!! This is a real nice board but make sure you get the memory off the approved list of supported DIMM's. Hers is a link to the support page at MSI for this board. http://us.msi.com/product/mb/970AG46.html#hero-specification. Also if you go with Windows 8.1 download the necessary drivers form this page as the will be newer than those on the Disc. Good luck this MoBo Rocks!!

According to the Manufactures specifications the board WILL accept a maximum of 32 Gb or RAM if you can locate the proper modules. I found some on Newegg.com and I am sure if you research other sites you may find more. The limit of 16 mb that others have mentioned is because they have not look far enough.

Depends on which version of Windows you are running. To utilize 32GBs, I'm using Windows 7 Ultra 64bit. Using Windows 7 Home Premium 32bits, you get something like 3300GBs. I don't know about Professional. I hope this answer helps.

Seems like it said 16 gig was max. But I saw one that said you could have up to 32. Check the specs on Dell.com to get the absolute answer.

Hello a kit mean comes with 2 8gb totaling 16gbs. If you have 4 slots you can go up to 4 8gb's totaling 32gbs. You need to have widows 7 64 bits to be able to use all 32gbs. You only need that much ram if you are doing video or heavy photoshop work. Also if you do autocad then you would use that much. If only doing games, e-mails normal things then 8gb's is more than enough. The Crucial sticks I got are working very well. Hope this helps.

You should probably look up the manual.... the 16 GB (if I recall correctly) is not supported, only a maximum of 8 GB.

I added RAM on mine - 2 gig because it only had two slots. Not sure when it maxes out, but that probably would be determined by what sort of chip it is. I'm sure you can research that online.

I use an 8GB micro sd card and it works fine, not sure if 16GB would work, it does not say max in the manual.

I have returned this unit due to a block-out and honestly I can be 100% sure I do believe 32 GB is the maximum capacity you can have.

Yes, you can upgrade the RAM to 16GB. You may contact us after you place the order to discuss the options.

It stats 16 but I believe 32 gb because of the 4 slots. I run 16 and it's smooth...

I think it can take up to four gigs of RAM. Mine only came with one though.

The model I have listed under ttNB has 16GB of RAM. Check the descriptions well. Amazon did not have the exact model of my configuration. Everything is identical except for added extras, including the RAM.

I think that means max. So I'd say you could use 16GB in factI usually use 16's instead of 32's

Hello, The maximum ram memory can extend up to 16 GB as per Intel Core i7-4500U Processor. Thank You, Krish/DEC Trader

You can use up to 2 GB per slot, so the max would be 8 GB (up to PC2-6400 speed), I have not tried 4 GB memory in one slot, it may work, but isn't officially supported.

Hi Kristi, Yes. The maximum GB of RAM for this laptop is 16GB. Also just a FYI, it supports up to 1333mhz RAM. No need to spend extra money on 1600mhz+ RAM for this one.

It depends upon how much memory you have installed when you buy it. I bought 8GB of RAM. I will probably never fill it up.
