Can h55(lga 1156) platform really support 8gb dimm per slot?

Planning for a motherboard with higher ram capacity is this enough?
I thought only 4gb dimms are supported on this platform but the official zebronics page says their board supports 8gb I know that the controller sits on the cpu but thier are boards which doesn't boot with 8gb dimms like my current motherboard.
Anyone has idea if it they are talking about some special server dimms or normal consumer dimms?

As per the specification provided from the Zebronics Support page it says that Memory support by this motherboard DDR3 each slots 8GB. I tried to upgrade the RAM DDR3 1333MHz memory on one of the slots, when boot it stuck in welcome page of the OS Windows 10 64bits.

I tried on a 1st gen laptop too a long while back. I was able to boot into BIOS and do stuff but on loading Windows it got stuck on spinning dots.
