    I have a MSI GE70 0ND-033US laptop: how many RAM modules can I put in it? I'd like to have 4 x 8 GB of RAM.

    CPU-Z sees 4 RAM slots while some websites claims there are only 2 memory slots (e.g. http://www.pcworld.com/product/1287511/msi-ge70-0nd-033us-notebook.html).

    When opening the laptop, I only see 2 memory slots, but there could be 2 more under the keyboard (which I don't know how to remove).

    It has 2 slots, thus 8GB x 2 = 16GB.
    The CPU can handle 4 memory banks, but only 2 of them are built so the other 2 are absent.

    Nothing under the keyboard on the GE models, need the GT series to get up to 32GB.
