Hey guys,

Just a quick question about my PC. I was thinking do I require more RAM as I am experiencing a bit of lag when I stream whilst playing the game. I also experience really bad lag when I get a donation. I feel this might be because I don't have enough RAM. My specs are as follows:

CPU: I5 4670k (not overclocked)

GPU: GTX 980 "Reference Design" 4096MB GDDR5

RAM: Kingston HyperX Beast 8GB (2x4GB) PC3-17100C11 2133MHz
Cooling: H100i

Motherboard: Asus Maximus VI Hero C2 Motherboard

Powersupply: Corsair
Builder Series CX 750W

I was thinking about buying just two more 4GB sticks but the sticks I bought previously are discontinued, so I don't know if another set of sticks could be used in unison or if I would have to get a quad kit. Either way, is there a set you would recommend, or should I be able to stream with 8GB's worth?

Hello,

Your PC specs are really good and i dont think there is any need to buy more RAM. Try doing a virus scan on your PC... If your game is a bit laggy, try updating your video and audio drivers.

Hope this helps...
