This is true also for my ASUS mb and I suspect for others. You just have 
to keep digging until you get to a description you can trust. Some 
descriptions and photos posted to the Internet, even by some reputable 
vendors, may or may not be totally accurate, and even the best vendors 
do a terrible job providing comparable information for each motherboard 
they sell.

8GB is plenty for a production EMC2 machine but in tests with virtual 
hosts I keep running out of room with only 8GB of disk space when I try 
any fancy development work. 12GB is fine but not a reasonable number for 
a physical drive.
