hey guys. I currently have 2x4gb corsair XMS3 1600mhz C11 DDR3 on my Asus b85 plus motherboard. my motherboard has 4 ram slots. 2 colored white, 2 black. the black ones are currently filled with my own 2 rams.
I am also going two buy 1 of exact same ram I currently have on those 2 black slots. and place it in one of those white slots. ( I supposed to buy 2 but that ram model is old and I couldn't find it anywhere to purchase in place where I live) so yeah my only choice is 3x4gb for now.
My question is: is it even possible? is having 3 rams on my system a good idea since one slot remains empty and it wont have any couple? I'm in doubt because rams are usually 4,8,16,32gbs and I never heard someone have 12gb of rams.
would this work properly ? or would it make my system slow bring crash and bsod, sudden resets or other problems? is it safe to do so?
please help me
