What is the maximum ram supported by X51 R2 motherboard?

Hi all,

Is it 32GB? I tried googling but no luck. I really appreciate any help.

P.S. Please don't tell me that there's no need to upgrade RAM. I'm doing paralleled data crunching, RAM is crucial for me.

yes 32 GB if you have a 64 bit operating system otherwise windows will only see half of it if its 32 bit operating system.

I though 32bit was limited to just under 4Gb.

hmm you may be right i did not think of that lol been a while since i had 32 bit/

Thank you guys!
But I just found that it only has two RAM slots, which means that I can only upgrade it to 16GB..

Looks interesting! But they're server memories. I heard people said that they cannot be used in desktops.

Thread is quite old but as there is no definitive answer imma chirp in, I tired 2x kingston 16GB ddr3 reg sticks and get the 2 beep no RAM detected error. This is with an i-7 so 32GB should be supported, I do believe it is the MOBO that freaks when it see's more than 16GB.
