its probably the motherboard, a lot of motherboards limit the amount it can support.

 

edit: nvm, its something to do with the OS

Here are the upper RAM limits for the different editions of Windows 7:

• Starter: 8GB
• Home Basic: 8GB
• Home Premium: 16GB
• Professional: 192GB
• Enterprise: 192GB
• Ultimate: 192GB

wait. what? are you sure? I mean, theorectically, a 64-bit operating system should be able to recognize 2⁶³ bytes of RAM (9.2x10¹⁸ or 9.2 exabytes of ram). I can understand putting some sort of limit on it, but 16GB seems a little riduculously low..

so you buy windows 8.

the OS alone may probably eat 8gb. :p
