RAM DELL Inspiron 580

Question

I am confused concerning the maximum  memory for the Inspiron 580. On the Dell web site, it states 8 GB is the maximum (4x2B).  Reading in another post I saw that this limit seems surmountable.  I state that I have installed windows professional 64 bit. Now I have 3 modules of 2GB for a total of 6 GB. I would like to install an additional module to 8 GB for a total of 14 GB. I can do that? There are problems because the modules are not paired two by two? Thank you
