RAM question

[fryk29]

Can you put 8GB and 4 GB of RAM together? (speaking of same manufacturer and type)

 

Cuz I saw computers with 12GB of ram, was that 3x4?

Yes that would be 3 4gb sticks. You can only put together ram that is of the same size

 

Nvm i guess you can put different sized sticks together

It's not true, personal experience, you can use different size of RAM sticks

Yes you can use different sized RAM sticks, but it is not recommended. They might run at lower speeds and/or XMP won't work.
