Visit the manufacturer website and check. All manufacturers maintain a list for ram.

That doesn't help me. The nForce 780i Memory list only says it supports 2gb kits only but the Board says it can hold 8gb. So can someone please explain thx.

That means 2gigs for one stick and you can have up to four sticks witch equals 8gigs. I am running the EVGA 780i with 4gigs of PC8500 1066 (2x 2gigs sticks). What processor are you running?

this is a good deal:

But this is where I got mine and they are 2 gigs per stick:

This is the support page for the 780i and 790i for EVGA:

Also remember you can only use DDR2 in the 780i, if you want to use DDR3 go with the 790i
