As per the website yes. When it came out a year ago or whatever, single 32gb ram sticks didn’t yet exist.
Both Windows and Arch see and use the full 40GB of RAM though. I installed it, and everything worked
beautifully.

It’s more a recommendation than an absolute limit with 32 gb ram. When you install 32 gb of ram every system should be able to handle that. Not like when you put more ram into it.
So gratulations to your 40 gb monster.

Thank you. It’s the first new computer I’ve bought since 2014, and that was a $160 Chromebook. I wanted to get something to last me a decade, and this is what I came up with.
I was going to buy a similar router. I replaced an ER-X with MikroTik instead:
Cheap, but do the job!

to put all the old parts into with just the 2400g apu
price shot up 15$ since i bought mine…weird. hope the glass isn’t borken when it arrives from oregon…
even this is more space than i need for my matx board build. you could shorten it by 4 inches and have a ssd/hdd mount behind the power supply still. Yah i know theres room for a water cooler but not everyone wants that or needs it.

@LizziAS Looking good, and I am so jealous. I always loved those Silverstone cases. One could fit a lot of stuff into them despite the small size. I built several systems in that one’s antecedent in the Sugo line over the years for people. Sorry, I missed that you were buying an ATX PSU for it. I really need to work on my reading comprehension. 
If you think about it in the future, you could go with an SFX power supply instead of an ATX. It has a smaller foot print than an ATX PSU. This would allow for more airflow and/ or room for more stuff. Silverstone has a bracket that allows for the use of an SFX PSU in an ATX chassis.

I look forward to seeing pictures after it is assembled.

i didnt know i was building one either when i started but through a series of errors and misunderstandings and confusions on my part, i ended up eating the whole proverbial cake without ever meaning to… I wasn’t planning to spend nearly 800$ on a new system and reclycling my rx 570 into the new system but it’s done and i do mostly like how it turned out. The 700w psu is too long and runs into the bracket for the ssds up top. of course if they had decided to properly arrange for the psu to be on the bottom and put the motherboard on the top and forgo the top vent holes in the back and place them up front the design would be much more agreeable to a top vented single fan all in one water cooler. i put a case fan in the front to pull cool air in through the mesh filters. While i was planning initially to use a single fan water cooler all in one i’m glad i changed my mind because the the air would be blowing out through the mesh filter and come in the back and sides through the vent holes which would make no sense and would filter no dust. I have used it for a few days with my 2400g apu which isn’t officially supported but works great in my pcie ver 4 550 mini-itx motherboard. If i had known it would work at all i would have forgone the added expense of the 3600 ryzen 5 just now and spent 200$ on something else until i could afford a 5600 - which is a full 70% performance upgrade from my 2400g apu. when the gpu prices drop again one day i’ll see about a ryzen upgrade to that.
You should see the case i’m replacing, it’s ridiculous but it was like 30$ when i bought it. I could fit a two fan water cooler radiator along the top and crossfire like 3 cards in this thing and it has room for 3 ssd’s plus 4 3 1/2 inch hdd. i’ll switch to my phone and show you how ludicrously and inanely huge this case is. It’s a dinosaur 
from another era.
I mean if I hand need of 4 3 1/2 inch hdd and 3 sdds and 3 drive bays and crossfire 3 way or something this is the case for that but it’s so obtuse for me. I just need a drive or two and a graphics card and my WiFi / Bluetooth card.
OH! And i still have the original box this case came in. I saved it so i could put my computer back in it in case i needed to move. if anyone want’s it please let me know. i’ll gladly donate to someone. May post it on craigslist for free.

Looks good. I hope it lasts you many years.

Thanks. Me too! Def no extra space in this thing. The mb has room for a pcie4 nvme on top and a pcie3 nvme underneath it so if i get one of each there i won’t even need the ssds

The case is new. The power supply is from the other build that is waiting on replacement same for the 32 go ram and the 3600 cpu. The mother board hdd ssd nvme and rx570 all from parts of old machine
Tempered glass! Aren’t I so fancy!
Since i bought this the price shot up from 35 to 50 on amabezzos.
The 2 1/2 inch ssd on the right below the sandisk is a 1tb drive i took out of a usb backup disk from walmart. when i want a 2 1/2 inch disk and i don’t want to wait i go buy the backup drives and rip them open usually they don’r do anything fancy and just throw them in a case.

I have that same NVMe drive! For being QLC, it’s surprisingly good performance, doubly after I had a Crucial P1 that I DESPISED as the performance was so utterly terrible that a SATA SSD wouldn’t have been any worse.
