Hey guys, I got this specific 16gb ddr4 memory:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0143UM4TC
and I was wondering if I wanted to upgrade, could I buy another 16gb of the same brand, same speed, etc or if that would still be considering mixing ram and not a good idea?
I ask this because I recently bought this and was hoping to throw in another 8gb but read up that you really shouldn't mix ram and decided that the only way would be to buy the same exact ram - but would that still be mixing ram?
Should I just return these and get a 2x16gb or 4x8gb pack?
There is a 2x16gb 2400mhz for about $100 more or 2x16gb 3200mhz for $200 more.. but all my research on 2400vs3200 seems like 1-2 fps gains.. so not worth it?
btw.. do you guys actually feel like there will ever be a gaming use for 32gb of ram? I've been playing with emulators lately but nvidia has a bug where it uses A LOT of memory and 16gb seems to be just slightly too little.. 24gb would be the sweet spot but then again this is nvidia issue and they are working on it.. so I'm not really sure if this upgrade would be worth anything.
