I want to upgrade to Quad channel DDR 4 memory in my motherboard. I currently run 4 dual channel sticks in the board, but I want to sell them off to fund the new memory- while prices are still high. Can I safely run 1 or 2 sticks of this old memory in the board, or is 4 the minimum? I doesn't show anything less then 4 in the manual. I'd probably run 2 since memory is typically sold in pairs anyway. Then I could sell the other 2 in the board for now. My motherboard is a Gigabyte Aorus x299 Gaming 7 and I'm using a 7800x cpu chip.
