Hey,

 

I recently upgraded from Intel to Ryzen (ddr3 to ddr4) and because RAM prices were so high I bought Corsair Vengence 1x8 2666Ghz (So i could upgrade later). But now that i have a new case (Meshify C) I kinda want g Skill RAM (RGB). If I buy 2 g Skill (2x8 2666Ghz) sticks and later on one more corsair vengence (the same that i have now) stick, will it affect performance? I know that 1 or 3 sticks cant run in dual channel but what if I have it in this order: Corsair | g Skill | Corsair | gskill?

should be fine, Its how I have mine right now. There is always a chance it wont work, but your chances are more likely to work than not work.

Ryzen likes dual channel memory, so you should be fine.
