Thank you for your quick response. Vostro 430 is sent with: Intel P55 Express Chipset and Intel H57 Express Chipset. Dell recommends using the maximum memory of 16 GB on your computer, which is ideally tested by the product support group. However, if you install more than the recommended memory, you may face system instability issues.
Ok thanks, this is the "official" Vostro 430 specs. My question is more: is this a chipset limit? Or can I run more than 16 GB by just using more than 4 GB memory module?
