Hey guys,
I bought a 8x2 GB setup to my 4x2 GB setup in my computer.
What I did was to remove the 4x2GB setup and I replaced it with the 8x2GB ram sticks.
The 8x2GB and the 4x2GB are from the same company, same speeds, same everything but the sizes are the only factor different.
Many people around me told me that I could maximize my computer by inserting the 2x4 and the 2x8 GB together but I don't know about it ( if it will remain 100% working like always).
I'm a gamer and I do a lot of video editing so adding another 8GB to my computer could be better than now ( although I don't have intentions to buy another set of ram).
Of course my system can handle maximum of 32GB so there is not a problem in the mother board.

Should I do it ?

Thanks for future help !
 
Solution
Give it a try, don't know your hardware, but would start with the 8GB sticks in slots 1-3 and then put the 4GB in 2 and 4....if problems let us know the mobo, CPU and model #s of the DRAM and we can try some adjustments ;)
