Yes the maximum amount if RAM is 32GB so you made the requirements. And there is 4 slots to fit it.

Check the specs out here on the memory section.

So you will have no problem, however I recommend you to get a dual channel for better performance if you are able to.

I looked this up on the ASRock web site and it is not on the officially supported list (either the single memory stick or the dual memory stick kits).

You can find the officially supported memory list at:

http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970%20Extreme4/?cat=Memory

It may work, but it has not been tested. An important thing to keep in mind is that this motherboard is designed to run with dual channel memory kits. The processor will have a performance hit if only a single module is used.

On the good news side, the specifications page states that this motherboard supports up to 64GB of ram, so memory modules up to 16GB in size.

If you do get a set of these modules, check the return policy in case they do not work in your system.
