The kits are validated as a kit, if you get two separate 2x8 kits they are not guaranteed to work together at the rated speed whereas a 4x8 kit is.

I know this is dumb but I simply cannot figure out how to show my build under each comment. How do I include that?

That's what I am currently running, no problems so far. Haven't attempted my overclock yet, however I have heard with this motherboard if you are trying to overclock you are slightly limited. If you're really trying to push your cpu, maybe think about a high end x470 or any x570, otherwise the tomahawk is a great board for its price.

Got it, thanks guys, ill remove this now.

Also . often with just some voltage increase and proper timings setup you can run DDR3 or DDR @ well above stock clocks.
 
Only issue is you dont always get the auto profiles of higher clocks so you need to research a bit. 

This.
 
Technically, for the highest of overclocks populating all 4 dimm slots will reduce your overclock, but we are talking about the very extreme... @ernie mills for any normal PC, it makes no difference.

Stability with overclocking or low end platforms or just not having enough ram slots. For the layman it’s 0 difference.

Time to push a dangerous amount of voltage through my CPU for a screen shot that means nothing, BRB at 5ghz!

But considering the frame drops when ray tracing is enabled for the 2080ti of all things, is there any point having features ray tracing and dlss for something like the 2060
