Max RAM on Aspire TC-710

mrtomp

Hi - 

I've seen contradictory postings on this topic, and hoping to get confirmation on the max amount of RAM I can install for my Aspire TC-710.

My specs:
System Manufacture: Acer
System Model: Aspire TC-710 
Baseboard Version: V:1.1
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i-7-6700 CPU @ 3.40GHz, 3408 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
Serial Number: DBB151100162000FE59100
Installed Physical Memory (RAM): 16.0 GB

Bios version / details:
Bios Version/Date: American Megatrends Inc. R01-A3, 18/03/2016
SIMBIOS Version: 3.0

Read out from cmd 'wmic memphysical get MaxCapacity, MemoryDevices': 

MaxCapacity  MemoryDevices

33554432     2

<end>

The above read out from cmd max capacity indicates that I can have 32Gb RAM. But other postings I have seen on this topic state otherwise e.g. 16Gbps RAM is the max:

1. https://community.acer.com/en/discussion/603396/upgrading-ram-on-aspire-tc-710#:~:text=Yes, your system supports up,modules, so 32GB in total.

2. https://icecat.biz/en/p/acer/dt.b1qef.032/aspire-pcs-workstations-4713392582158-tc-710-31741863.html

If someone can confirm which is accurate, that would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Spec from Acer says: Support DDR3L 1.35V 1600 unbuffered DIMMs (2GB, 4GB, 8GB or 16GB) dual channel up to 32GB total memory. So yes you can go to 32GB with two 16GB DIMMs and no, you can't use the older 1.5V memory.

Also, if I can upgrade to 32Gb RAM (2 x 16Gb), can I install RAM with a voltage of 1.5 V or does it need to be 1.35 V?
