No such kits are listed in the memory QVL. You can try, but there's no guarantee they'll work.

" rel="nofollow - In the manual you can found :

??nbsp;    Supports DDR3/DDR3L 1866/1600/1333 non-ECC, un-
buered memory
??nbsp;    Max. capacity of system memory: 16GB .............

But it's not clear to me the meaning of * 2GB DRAM is not supported.

Does it means 1gb+1gb or 2gb+2gb ?

The specification on ASRock's web page state for J3455B and J3455 that:

*2GB DRAM per module is not supported.

So that would mean 2 + 2 is a no go, and presumably this also applies to 1 + 1.

However, if you look at the memory QVL's on ASRock web page, the smallest supported memory sticks are:

J3455B: 2GB
J3455: 4GB

If those lists are correct, the J3455B should support 2 + 2 when using the memory that is listed (Transcend, TS256MSK64W6N). The J3455 on the other hand does not seem to support 2GB modules at all.

" rel="nofollow - Thanks PetroHead,

Maybe is better to switch to the
