another alternative is to get 2 x 16 GB ddr4 3200 Mhz rams for around 400rm new and sell your older ddr4 rams. (or if you put all 4 in and they work at 3200 Mhz, then you can have 48GB ram)

QUOTE(gkong3 @ Mar 16 2024, 08:59 PM) Is this likely to work? Because 2023/2024 RAM isn't likely going to be on the QVL for a 2016 motherboard, which is what concerns me. I don't mind making a full replacement if I'm guaranteed that this will work in an old setup I don't even mind running everything using slower RAM speeds as long as everything remains stable (let's be honest, the games I can run on this machine won't be anything latest and greatest anyway). like what PRSXFENG mentioned, QVL list is basically the list of rams they bothered to test with said mobo. and usually this list won't be updated when next gen mobo is launched.  3200 Mhz is not that exotic nor fast, so it should work fine. |
