   I checked memory compatibility list at http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970A-G3.1/?cat=Memory and found that only 4GB max. modules are supported officially.I want to use 8Gb modules. Do you guys have any experience with this mb and large modules? 
Thanks.

	She'll run with 8GB sticks just fine. It's an older board and apparently they haven't updated the QVL in a while. Instead, use the below tools to find Guaranteed Compatible memory for your motherboard. http://www.gskill.com/en/configurator?manu=52&chip=0&model=0 http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/advisor?cm_re=top-nav-_-flyout-memory-_-us-memory-advisor https://www.kingston.com/us/memory/search/Options https://patriotmemory.com/memory-finder/ http://www.pny.com/support/memory-configurator http://www.corsair.com/en-us/memory-finder
