A:AnswerSide note for you,
Mine came with the radiator fans push/push, not push/pull. This caused excessive heat since it was being kept in the case.

Switching the one far dropped the temp in my system dramatically.

A:Answer"4x DDR4 memory slots, support up to 64GB" according to the MSI Pro Series Motherboard Manual that came with the PC. So unfortunately this MB will only support 64GB.
