Will the mat. ASUS P5P43TD PRO board with 8 GB sticks?

Immediately, a request to the cuckooers not to write any nonsense like "why do you need this 775th", "better buy something on i3", "Zeon does not drag", etc.
So, there are two DDR3 strips of 8 GB each, 1333 MHz.
After reading about this motherboard, I found information that the "banks" on the bar should be 8 pieces on both sides (in my case, this is true), bars with similar characteristics are in the list of supported memory, so theoretically the system should start in dual-channel with two slats of 8 GB, total 16 GB.
I conducted a similar experiment with the GA-N3150N-D3V board, which only supports 8 GB and, in theory, you need to install 2x4, but with one 8 GB bar in one slot, everything started and worked fine.
The question is that the board with these two 8 GB sticks will still work. I read here that the board didn’t start for a person (it’s possible that the board didn’t work specifically with these modules, i.e. it couldn’t start normally at 1600 MHz, since this frequency is indicated in the specifications as “overclocking”, and the strips could just do not support the frequency below 1600 MHz), and the message below says that it only supports 4 GB sticks, but I did not find such information in the TTX of the chipset, nor in the TTX of the board.

It clearly says
You may install 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, and 4GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR3 DIMMs into the
DIMM sockets.
Nothing is said about 8.
Will not work.

Yes, who knows whether it will start or not
It happens with 4 * 8 it starts every other time, although it should pull 32, with a major overclocker memory (in normal mode without overclocking)
Or another board is written with a maximum of 2 * 4 and it works fine with 2 * 8 many years
