When used as virtualization hosts, the more ram the better. I've got an N305 with 32Gb of ram and sitting at 10% cpu with 90% memory utilization running a dozen or so VMs / Containers.
The problem is 48Gb Dimms are not common and usually more than double the cost of a 32Gb dimm. For my use...
I can confirm that the that the Moginsok is variation B style. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C6D3P14X?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1
Interesting note about the 32GB. Explains why Moginsok offers a 32GB config.
# Will 32GB memory be possible? #
I know it's 'early days' for these models of CPUs / MiniPCs, so I'll have to wait a while for some real answers...
I understand 32GB memory (RAM) is not officially supported (Intel specs for all Alder-Lake-N say: 16GB Max Mem, Single Channel ONLY )...
There's 3 pages of posts =39685&o=relevance']mentioning 32gb in this thread. That search box up top lets you restrict the search to the current thread with a checkbox.
Ordered a 4 port TopTon N100 with the taller fins(variant C) to play with, though I also separately ordered a 32GB ddr5 sodimm.
But you guys are saying now that it doesn't support a 32GB sodimm for the N100 chipset?
Too late now to change things, so guess I'll have to see.
Awesome - good to hear. I saw the 32GB config from TopTon which is why I ordered a 32GB DDR-5 SODIMM to go with my barebones unit - then read forum posts saying it was 16GB only. I already have a drive here to use so didn't want to order it all from TopTon
They seem to work fine with 32GB SODIMM. Intel has only validated / supported up to 16GB memory with these:

Technically the NXXX chipset is only rated for 16GB according to the intel spec, though these boards seem to be fine with 32GB ram and the manufacturers even sell them with 32GB. Mine's pretty happy with 32GB. Please let us know if you are successful in getting it to take more!
As for ramdisk...
you could give the CT48G56C46S5 Ram a try. The 32GB module works without issues in at least two units. But order somewhere where there is free returns available as it is 3x the official maximum :-)
I'm aware, but I also know that it works just fine with 32GB dual-rank SO-DIMMs. I also know that the N100 works fine with 12GB, because I have a mini N100 computer with 12GB.
I ended up ordering the CT32G48C40S5 from Amazon since there are others reporting success with the same SKU.
Intel states the max supported is 16Gb but these say 32Gb and people have successfully tested that they work fine.
Personally I have no need for 32Gb and would not like to exceed CPU manufacturers limit.
...had two SO-DIMM slots in the same spot in a very similar PCB layout.
2) Intel ARK states the maximum memory supported as 8GB for Gemini Lake, 32GB for Elkhart Lake and 16GB for Jasper Lake but the actual maximum memory is higher: Gemini Lake supports 2x16GB = 32GB and Jasper Lake 2x32GB =...
Newbie poster so sorry on advance. I've just ordered an i3-N305 from CWWK and wondered if anyone has one and has tried 32gb ram in one ? If so what was the outcome ?
...Looks like the units are a bit picky with what they accept. Order the RAM from a vendor where you can send it back if needed. I have tried a Kingston Fury, both 16GB and 32GB (after an upgrade), and both work fine. The 32Gb is described here: https://www.kingston.com/datasheets/KF548S38IB-32.pdf
So with N100 6LAN version, Kingston KF556S40IB-16 works. Currently running memtest, ram sitting at 49C. Unfortunately I do not have anything else to test the Crucial 32GB in before I think about returning it.
So finally got round to trying out my n305-v2 (I think it's v2 because it has 2 red USB ports...).
32GB crucial stick was detected as was the dirt cheap 2TB Crucial T3.
Still need to torture it a bit.
Same here. Same model, same memory.
Proxmox and Opnsense combo works like a charm till it doesn't. Memtest runs fine first run, second time fails.
I prefer 32Gb but I prefer a stable system more. Any suggestions? Or should I go for 16Gb?
