Hello guys! I am stuck in a little problem here and the problem is that my friend
gifted me a motherboard of gateway company and its model like MCP61PM-GM and
manufacturer ECS which i have noted from the cpu-z software and the processor AMD
Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Dual Core 3.00 ghz and also let me know you that i am basically
new to AMD processors so come to the point what i want to know is that how much ram will
my mobo support? Will 16 gb dual channel or single channel (4 rams of 4 gb in four
slots) be supported in this gateway motherboard or not?
Currently using 3 rams of 1gb ddr2 of single channel in 3 slots.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated...
 
Solution


4 sticks of 2gb so a total of 8gb. Not 2 X 4gb sticks but 4 X 2gb sticks.

You mean maximum upto 8gb ram is supported and what about 16 gb ram if i want to upgrade and play video games more smoothly?
