Is 8GB RAM stick supported by Asrock P55DE3?

Hi. Before buying 8GB ram stick I would like to make sure that is its supported by Asrock P55DE3 motherboard.

Do you know guys if it is supported or not? There is no info in spec about this limit, only that RAM is limited up to 16 GB. QVL is pretty old and doesn't have it either.

4GB is the limit per slot.

Sorry, but Asrock description, which I definitely read, doesn't state that it is impossible to put 2x8GB sticks and leave two slots empty to make it work. Right now I have 1+2+4 == 7GB Ram , so adding 8GB would make it 15GB which is perfectly valid according to this description.

Thanks for one more source to prove that it wouldn't work. I actually bought 8GB stick, inserted it, but even BIOS failed to load. So I returned it to the store. So it seems, that it won't work, or there still might be a little chance the stick was broken.
