Title: gateway p6831fx 8 gb of RAM
Post by: El33tsamurai on July 08, 2008, 10:28:17 AM
Does anyone have a gateway p6831fx and gotten 8 BG of RAM to work on it?  I was reading and saw that the Intel 965 chipset is based on 36 bit technology, and can support up to 8 gigs. I am trying to make my laptop into a VM best so I can setup a couple VM's on it for a ethical hacking lab :).

You might check the model out at kingston.com and see what they say is the maximum amount of ram supported.

Stupid question, but you are running x64 on it, right?

yeah :) so so fast, they all say that 4 gigs is max but if you go to Intels web site says its based on the 36 bit not 32 bit so it can use 8 gigs
