no core 2 duo chipset can take 16gb of ram.

You need a 1st gen quad core i7 mobile (the dual core won't see 16gb) or a 2nd gen+ i5 or i7 for your laptop to see 16gb.

Didn't Dell produce an M6400 with C2D and 16GB RAM support? Not that I'm suggesting it for the OP, just for clarification.

Not quite right, but none of them could do 8GB sticks, so a Core 2 era system still wouldn't be an option for OP, even though a handful might have had 4 slots.

That was a Core, I'm pretty sure.

Some Turion II systems would support it, but they tended to mostly be in craptops, though some good business HP models had them.

x220/x230 takes 16gb
dell e6230 takes 16gb

I know only because I have 16gb on them

Thanks Cerb, found some info, M6400 specs, yes, it supported 16GB and used 4 slots. I don't know if 8GB modules are usable as I imagine 16GB back then would have been exotic and 8GB SODIMM's just not comprehensible at that time. Also a lot of the C2D laptops used DDR2 even though the 4 series supported both.

Not sure if the OP is just curious, seems strange not to send them back or resell but instead buy a laptop. C2D is old now, have one in my current laptop and am looking for a suitable Haswell replacement.

just been busy with work. everyone's input in this is awesome. i just forgot to return them. and i want to get a laptop that's current too. so that's why i saved them. just sucks because the cheapest one i seen so far was like $700ish. as of now my budget isn't that much. $300-$350 max because i don't need a lot of things. is there a way to customize your laptop ? haha. no but for real. is there?
