Mobo is asus m5a78l plus.
Ive seen claims it can hold 16gb of ram, wondering if this is true.
Right now I run 2x4gb sticks @ 803mhz.
Current cpu is AMD FX6100.

Which would be the more effective upgrade right now?

16gb RAM or upgrading to the FX 8320?

There doesn't seem to be an ASUS motherboard M5A78L Plus.

There is an L-M Plus, an L- M LX Plus.

This.

The M and the M LX motherboards...say 8GB max. RAM.




But you really should just save up and build a new comp. You're on a dead platform.

Mobo/cpu/ram.
