Hey, I am using 2x4gb sticks of Corsair LPX DDR4 @2400mhz, but when playing games on my pc, it uses 97% ram. I was thinking if I got another 4gb stick to bring me to 12gb, would my MSI Gaming B150 M3 support three channel ram?
Here's what I have:

Here's what I would like to get:

*I will eventually put in another 4, for a total of 16gb.*

If all the sticks will play nice, it will run in Flex mode (you'll have 8GB isn dual channel and the odd four will run in single channel mode) which is no big deal, big thing will be if they will all play. No guarantees when mixing DRAM. If you try and have problems, give a shout and we can try some voltage/timing adjustments
