Hi chilloh,

That board has three versions for it, so I'm not sure which one is yours. Just click on the link that is for you version, then click on the Specification link under Product Information. Next, just look under the Memory section to see how much and what type of RAM the motherboard can support.

I hope this helps,

chilloh,

That would be the one then. Your MOBO will only support up to 1GB RAM sticks for a total of 4GB though.

chilloh,

From what I can tell, I can only assume that it will not support anything larger than 1 GB per stick.

chilloh,

4GB is not bad at all. It should serve you very well.
