About Samsung M471A4G43MB1-CTD Single 32GB RAM on XPS15

Recently, I purchased a Samsung M471A 4G43MB1-CTD Single 32GB RAM and found that when inserted into XPS15, CPU i7 6700HQ， BIOS can recognize normally, its capacity and main frequency are displayed normally, and it can enter the system normally.

At present, memory can be recognized and used normally under Windows, but it can not display memory information well under hackintosh.

 

I tried to inject memory information with Clover Configurator, but the maximum memory of Clover Configurator was only 16384MB. When I set it to 32768, the result was that memory information could not be displayed.

When I set it to 16384MB，I just want to explain why there is only a maximum of 16GB?

When I set it to 32768MB, it seemed that clover didn't work?

But I found that there is 32GB of single memory on Apple's official website, and it's 2666. This makes me wonder that although the computer can be used normally at present, it can not display its information. What should I do now?

Probably because you're using the SMBIOS of a Mac model that was limited to 16GB of RAM max. like Skylake-based MacBookPro13,x of 2016. You'll find a list of max. supported RAM by MacBookPro model here. Try the SMBIOS of a 2018 MPB15,1 to compare. This being said, it looks like the lack of RAM reporting is only cosmetic and your 32GB are there and usable...

I've tried MacBook Pro 15, 1, and Macmini 8, 1, but I still can't recognize memory! I tried to inject 32768MB, but still couldn't show, was it clover's problem?
