Hello
I had a custom built computer several years ago at microcenter. I currently have 16GB DDR3 RAM, and would like to upgrade. Not sure what the best option is: add more RAM or replace existing RAM with a new set.
I know its important to match voltage (1.5V) and CAS latency (9), but i get confused with dual channel, triple, and quad channels. I have 8 memory slots, only 4 used. Is it ok to go to 24GB or 32GB and it what configuration ?
Current RAM:
CORSAIR DOMINATOR 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR3 1866 CMP16GX3M4X1866C9

Motherboard:
ASUS P9X79 PRO LGA 2011

I never ended up overclocking the RAM, mainly because i dont know how and never go around to researching it. But maybe one day.
