iPickle94 got a reaction from boggy77 in OC - R5 2400g - ROG STRIX B450-F / HELP
After some messing around I finally got it at 3200 and was able to get a stable 3.8ghz

Yes, you can combine them, but they'll all run at the lower frequency and the higher timings all sticks support... 2666 Mhz.

2x4 + 2x8?
Should work. Though at lower rated sticks speed. If there is no ram shortage 2X8 higher speed would be better

next time carefully put back the cpu in the socket n just twist and it pops off easy
its not a problem with amd, its a problem where ppl dont use common sense and dont twist before pulling, its a rather basic thing to do hehe

I find dental floss is near perfect to get between things like that.

it's a long problem with AMD cpu's. I agree with the others. And don't apply to much force!

Usually the easiest way to get them free from each other is by using a small thread (yarn-like thread) and using that to come between the CPU and the paste. Apparently AMD stock paste is notorious for its SUCC effect on CPU's.
be sure to do it slowly, so the CPU doesn't suddenly fall.
Using a hairdryer to heat up the paste can be helpful in softening the paste.

Twist the CPU slowly, left and right; until it breaks free.
