Hey Guys,

I currently have this motherboard
MSI Z170I GAMING PRO AC

I would like to buy new RAM, but i'm not sure what limits there is.
Would i be able to use 2x32gb RAM sticks?

For example:
Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3200MHz 64GB
2x32GB DDR4 3200MHz (PC4-25600) CL16 XMP 2.0

what are you doing that uses 64gb of ram?????????

gaming system: Intel core I9 12900ks / biostar Z690A valkyrie / 4x8gb corsair Vengeance @3333Mhz ram / RX 7900XTX pulse gpu / Thermalright peerless assassin 140 /Coolermaster Qube 500聽case / Be Quiet Dark Power Pro 12 1500w power supply

It was mostly just to know if there were any limits i should be aware of.
If i decide to upgrade it would most likely be to 32gb.

over 16gb of ram doesnt do anything in games. in editing they perform little better than 16 gigs but in games there are NO difference at all.

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

Not verified as 32GB sticks came much later, no guarantees that it will work.
