I sent Gigabyte an email RH. But mobo manufacturers are fracking TERRIBLE about support. I doubt they will ever answer my question.
At this point though I'm thinking about sticking with 8.
8 should be more than sufficient, unless you're planning on editing multiple hi def videos simultaneously or something. You work enough with games to know that the difference in performance between 8 and 16 gigs isn't really going to mean much.

wtf kind of gaming rig has only 2 memory slots?
You're kinda new to this whole DDR3 thing aren't you?
As to the discrepancy between the web site and the board's documentation - check your firmware revisions and make sure everyone is referencing the same version.

Yeah true, can take ages to answer. (Had an thing with an MSI mobo once that took weeks to sort out through formal channels.)
Maybe a user-to-user support forum or enthusiast site can give a better/faster answer, dunno what's recommended in the US these days!?
If you wanna play it safe, you'll get far w. 8MB though for general use, maybe can swap out the mobo and get more RAM a couple years down the line if you can be arsed. Or just replace the whole comp.
