So, I've decided to upgrade my memory for the PC I have. Currently these are the specs the PC has:

Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3

Memory Installed: 8GB DDR3 Dual Channel (Manufacturer Team Group Inc, Part Number Zeus - 1600)
Now I did a search for info on the upgrade capacity and found this:
Memory:
4 x 1.5V DDR3 DIMM sockets supporting up to 32 GB of system memory (Note 1)
Dual channel memory architecture
Support for DDR3 2000(O.C.)/1866/1600/1333/1066 MHz memory modules (Note 2)

Am I correct in assuming that it will hold up to 32GB of memory in 4 slots?

I currently was looking at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231569

(G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-1600C9Q-32GXM

Cas Latency: 9
Voltage: 1.5V
Multi-channel Kit: Dual Channel Kit
Timing: 9-9-9
Model #: F3-1600C9Q-32GXM
Item #: N82E16820231569
Return Policy: Standard Return Policy

Any suggestions, corrections, comments, etc. would be greatly appreciated. If any additional info is needed, let me know

Thanks for the quick reply!

I was worried that when I did my research that I wasn't doing something right, as originally, I only thought this PC could hold up to 16GB of Ram (Holy Crap, 32 GB is a A LOT). Now I just have to choose a secondary drive, as I've almost filled up my current one w/ games, lol.
