Off Topic » I need help understanding Max RAM that can be used

I tried to search for this, but didn't find anything.

I have a Gateway FX6840 desktop system running Windows7 Home Professional.
The SPECS on this computer say that it supports a max of 8GB of RAM. However, when I bought it, I had the store upgrade the RAM to 16GB and that's working just fine.
There are 4 RAM slots on the motherboard.

I want to know if I can further upgrade to 32GB by putting an 8GB card into each of the four slots.

Gateway customer support is non-existant because the system is out-of-warranty. Their website directs me to the Acer website, whose help staff can't answer a question about an out-of-warranty Gateway system.

All I know of the computer is that it has an "Intel Series 5" chipset and that I'm currently happily running with 16GB of RAM.

Can I buy 4x 8GB of DDR3 1333 RAM and replace the memory I have now?


Please help....


I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
