Hi,
I've seen closed discussions here about combining memory kits and would like to provide my own experience. I combined two DDR4 64 GB memory kits in 2017 for a total of 128 GB RAM on an Asus Mark 2 X299 motherboard paired with an Intel Core I9-7900x. It has worked very well all these years with intense loads at times.
I am now considering combining two DDR5 96 GB kits for a total of 192 GB. My reason is two 96 GB kits is less expensive than one 192 GB kit. However has anyone tried this before? The 96 GB kits also operate at higher speeds. Perhaps stability would be compromised if the two kits are combined? I plan on getting a motherboard and CPU (MSI MEGZ790 GODLIKE E-ATX MOTHERBOARD paired with INTEL CORE I9-13900KS) that support these configurations.
Regards,
NR
