Unlikely, but your motherboard might have an extremely low max RAM capacity.
Search for your boards specifications and check how much RAM/Memory it can suppport. If you don’t know your motherboards name, open CMD and type: “wmic baseboard get product”
The amount of RAM your system can support is determined by your processor, not your motherboard, and it’s been this way ever since the memory controller was moved from the motherboard’s northbridge to the processor over a decade ago.
C’mon, the poor guy can’t get more than 8GB, at that point I’d say it’s a possibility that his motherboard is simply that old.
