Indeed that was my first thought when Dale mentioned getting another pair. I don’t know if it’s true for all Ryzen chips, but if you use four sticks, they may not work at the maximum speed advertised by AMD (not counting in overlcocking). If you kept the settings to Auto you shouldn’t get problems, but RAM may work slower then. OTOH, since you don’t do hard-core gaming or scientific number-crunching, it is unlikely you will notice a difference in your every-day computing. -- Grüße | Greetings | Salut | Qapla’ Please do not share anything from, with or about me on any social network.
