Hi everyone. I'm thinking of getting a couple more ram sticks for my system and I'm not sure if I can use those extra gigs of ram to make it faster (or any kind of improvement really.) I think it has something to do with cache? Not sure to be honest.

Thanks in advance!!

Spend your money elsewhere.
Adding ram is not guaranteed to work.
Ram is sold in kits for a reason.
A motherboard must manage all the ram using the same specs of voltage, cas and speed.
Ram from the same vendor and part number can be made up of differing manufacturing components over time.
Some motherboards can be very sensitive to this.
That is why ram vendors will NOT support ram that is not bought in one kit.

It is rare that I go over 10-12 GB used under heavy workloads when I am NOT doing video editing. I game. multitask a ton, and use productivity software such as Photoshop, ArcGIS, and AutoCAD.

Windows will cache stuff as needed, but having a SSD really means that I'm not waiting very long for ANYTHING to happen.
