Advice on dual channel ram

[samar21234]

I have Corsair vengeance LPX 2400mhz 16GB (8x2) Ram; they work as dual channel memory, but my mobo has 4 ram slots. so I have been thinking of purchasing Trident Z rgb 3200 mhz 16 GB (8x2) to fill that remaining Ram slots, my question is will both different ram kits will work in dual channel?

 

P.s :- I know trident won't run on 3200mhz and i am fine with it, but will all 4 ram sticks will work as dual channel on 2400 mhz?

idk whether its going to match but get the same model to be safe.

also 4slot on dual channel works fine. but the bandwith stay same. let say you render video. the render speed wont increase. but the capacity will increase for the ram

Science Studio did a pretty good video on mixing RAM.

In his experience, it all worked together; even mixed speeds and capacities.

 

My experiences too say the same thing; 99% of the time it just works. At the slowest of all the speeds though.

There is a chance you could OC the existing memory in the system; but that is certainly not a guarantee (plus with 4 sticks you already have more stress on the memory controller, making OC'ing more difficult).

Thank you! i will purchase the trident Z kit and try my luck and see how it goes.
