Hi, I'm trying to get 12Gb out of my 3x4Gb Corsair Vengeance ram sticks.
Should I buy another identical DIMM or is it possible my sticks/slots are damaged?
Would I also be able to buy a 1x4Gb or would they not be compatible?
Motherboard: MSI 970a-g43
CPU: AMD FX-8350 @ 4.0GHz
RAM: 3x4Gb Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz 1.5v CMZ12GX3M3A1600C9
- When I put two of them in different channels, I get 8Gb of ram.
- If I put them in the same channel I get 8Gb but only 4Gb usable
- If I put two in the same channel and one alone in another I get 12Gb but only 8Gb usable
