Hi folks,
I have an i7 5930K processor with a sabertooth X99 motherboard with a a quad channel kit of 16GB. The specifications as follows:
G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3000 (PC4 24000) Memory Kit Model F4-3000C15Q-16GRBB
I want to add more RAM, the more the better, for profession use. I would like a minimum of 32GB. I also found a kit of 32GB that looks good:
G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3000 (PC4 24000) Intel X99 Platform Extreme Performance Memory Model F4-3000C15Q-32GRBB.
What are my best options? This is a bit confusing and I would like the best performance possible.
1. Would I be able to keep the old and new Kit? so this will be a total of 48GB of RAM. 2 kits in their own quad channel mode. I have 8 slots for RAM, color coded.
2. Or should I buy the same kit again and only have 32GB. 2 kits, quad channel each.
3. Or should I buy the 32GB Kit and sell the old 16GB Kit.1 kit, quad channel.
Also, I plan to overclock my CPU slightly. This is why I am also confuse and not sure if it will have any unforeseen issues If I mix and match. Thanks.
