4 by 8 Sticks of Ram?

[Bar_Jimmy]

Hi, 

 

I've got a Ryzen 2600, and I've just bought another 2 by 8 sticks of 3200mhz ram and I've had massive inconsistencies and crashes to the point where I've had to swap back to 16gb total. Can my CPU not handle it? And if not what cpu can that i can upgrade to. I have a B450 Mortar max.

 

Thanks!

Try running them at 2666 and slowly bump up the speed

Not many Zen+ can handle 4 sticks at 3200 I think

Got you, thanks very much. I only really got the extra ram for cyberunk, would you have more at lower speeds> or less at higher speed?

Less at higher. Looking at the recommended system requirements it seems like CP 2077 won't really need more than 16GB of RAM

If you need the capacity, prioritize that because having not enough RAM is very bad

If not, then probably still the capacity, unless you really really won't be using it

 

The performance difference between the frequency is there, but I probably can't tell in a blind test

Sweet! Thanks man, if i wanted to get a CPU that could handle all that though, do you know the direction I'd need to go in?

Thanks man! I will only be playing at 1080 60 due to not having a good monitor, but I just want it to be stable

maybe your CPU can handle it, maybe the sticks arent good enough to let you mix kits, maybe both. 4x8gb at 2933MHz could still be faster than 2x8gb at 3200mhz however, need to check with benchmarks.

Oh I bought the same ones? or have you got to buy a kit of 32GB?

i'd go down to 2933 instead of all the way down to 2666, also try bumping soc up to 1.15v at 3200, if that doesn't work, 1.175v, then down to 2933

a kit of 4x8 and two kits of 2x8 are different things. They dont just package two kits into one and sell as is.
