Motherboard Specs.
Per the specs, that motherboard will accept socket 1155 Core I7 processors (
compatible processors), but you only have two DIMM slots. To upgrade to 12GB of RAM, you'd have to have just one 4GB RAM module installed. Personally, I'd recommend the following:
1) If you have 1x4GB RAM module installed, add a second, identical 4GB RAM module for a total of 8GB (2x4GB)
2) If you have 1x4GB RAM module installed, replace it with a 2x8GB RAM kit for a total of 16GB RAM
3) If you have 2x2GB RAM modules installed, replace them with either 2x4GB or 2x8GB RAM kits.
