4x 8GB RAM oder 2x 16GB RAM? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hey, kurze Frage. Ich habe in meinem PC 2x 8GB RAM und möchte auf 32GB aufrüsten. Kann ich einfach 2x 8GB dazupacken oder ist es besser auf 2x 16GB RAM-Bausteine zu gehen?

It's almost always better to go with fewer sticks with higher capacity, so 2x16. I'm assuming this is DDR4?

Also leaves room to buy another 2x16 next week!

Supposed the board allows the installation of 64 GB RAM.

Most somewhat modern Motherboards should allow it

I don't know about the specification of the particular motherboard of the OP.

The exception to this is running with a single stick, because you won't be able take advantage of DualChannel speed improvements. So 2x16GB is better than 1x32GB (if mounted on the board correctly).
