So, I'm confused over this.
I may of read something about if you have 4gb you can have the full 1600mhz (if it's available for you to use), but if you go above 4gb you cannot have the full 1600(unless you OC like hell maybe?)
Say I have 6 gb of ddr3-1600
I install 4gb, I can get up to 1600, then I add the other 2gb stick, and I can't get that high?
Can someone/people clarify this please, thanks.
Also, can you let me know if 8gb is superior to 4gb compared to extreme gaming?
Edit: if I upgrade to 8 gb's, CAN I run all 8 at the same timings I would run the 4gb at? Since i'm on AMD, the timings may become 8-8-8-24.... can I run 8-8-8-24 on 8gbs of ram?
