2x8 Gb Dual Channel + 1x8 Gb Dual Channel Ram. Now what happens ?

[nitrococuk]

Hello friends.

I have just bought 2x8 gb dual channel and 1x8 gb dual channel ram.

They're all the same brand, same CL, same V, same Mhz . No problem at all.

Morherboard is Asus Strix H270F gaming. Supporting dual channel.

CPU is i5 7600K.

Now here is my question ? Will i be able to use 24 gb ram as all dual channel ? Or all will be single channel ?

Will there be a significant performance drop ?

i use pc to after effects, photoshop and rendering but not for gaming.

Waiting for your valuable support.

With a mix like this will two sticks run in dualchannel and one will run in single channel ... assuming they will play nice together.This btw is called "Flex mode".

Thanks mate. How can i understand they're playing nice together ?

Comes down to trying. Sometimes sticks from different sets (or single sticks) won't play nice together,more of an explanation here,
