Hi, I have a set of 2x8GB and 2x4GB memory G.SKILL memory. Both run at the same speed. Can I use them in the same motherboard? If so, what layout should I use? I assume 8,4,8,4 but not sure. Thanks.

Hi, I'm looking at buying an MSI X992 Gaming 7 X99 and G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400. Newegg has a combo deal where you can save $120 buying the two together. I also plan on getting an Intel Core i7-5820k 3.3 CPU. Will I able to overclock the CPU around 4.4 GHZ with this RAM or do I need to invest in faster RAM? Thanks.
David
Ok, well I work with a lot of VMs for my job. I wanted to get the new X99 motherboard because it supports up to 64 gigs. Does that mean applications, such as games, that only use one core, won't run as fast? Thanks.
Hi, whenever I try to reboot my computer just stops. I tried reinstalling Windows, reset the CMOS and removing additonal hard drives but still the same problem. Do you know what could be causing this? Could it be a bad PSU? Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I mean is it possible to move my RAID 1 drives to a new computer. Does Intel have an option to sync two disks. For example copy data from one disk to the other when setting up a RAID 0 on a new motherboard? Thanks.
Hi, I have 2x 4GB HHD in a dynamic raid in Windows. I would like to use the Intel Raid on the motherboard. I read that if you undo the Intel Raid the data is still on the harddrive. I was wondering what would happen if I wanted to have a new Intel Raid 1 in a new computer. Would I have to reformat both drives? Thanks.

Hi, I just bought an evga sli connector. When I use it Windows starts to load and then just stops. I am not setting something up correctly? Thanks.
David
Hi, I tested the second card by itself and it runs fine just like the first card. I have a gigabyte z97 gaming GT with the latest BIOS update. I also have a Seasonic 1250W PSU. Thanks.

Hi I have two EVGA Superoverclock GTX 980s. For some reaosn when I put the SLI cable on the cards my desktop won't boot. I'm using a Asus SLI connector. Does the connector have to be from EVGA? Thanks.
I bought two cards because I have a 4k monitor and want to run everything maxed out if possible. Thanks for any advice.
David
Thanks for all the quick replies. They are really very helpful. I wish I could choose multiple post as resolved. I'm going to stick with my 290xs and hold out until the next generation. I think with the COD I can always lower the resolution.
David
I was think the new gtx 9xx are much better design then the 290x so it might be worth switching. I'm having second thoughts now because the hassle selling my current cards. Maybe i should just stick with what I have. The game I have problems with its call of duty.
Hi, does three gtx 970 compare to 2x 290x? I have a 4k monitor. Would a third 290x be overkill? Thanks. I have two Asus 290x direct current ii. I have a Seasonic 1250W so I think I could handle a third R9 290x but not sure if i would see a big performance increase. Thanks.
David
Hi,
I think I asked this question but I can't find my previous post. I have a seasonic 1250X PSU, 2x r9 290X and an Haswell I7. If I add a third r9 290X will 1250 watts be enough? Thank you.
