RAM Question

[xdillingrx]

I currently have two four gig sticks and have two more channels available. Would I be able to add whatever memory size I chose into the other slots? Like two 8 gig sticks to make a total of 24gb of ram?

yes

isnt 2x8 + 2x4 = 24gb

Yesss... ?‍♂️

Yes and no. You'd have to get identical ram, same speed and CAS latency, but if you can do that you should be good. Same manufacturer is also good. You might run into some comparability issues right at the start, but you should be able to iron them out pretty easily.

Nah, doesn't have to be same speed. IIRC all modules will just run at the speed of the slowest one.
