Question Building new pc, wondering if i should add in my old ram to build.

[luke pc]

I currently have a pretty bad pc with 8gb of ddr4 dual channel ram.

I am building a new pc soon and wondering if i should add my old ram in with my new ram for quad channel or if it is more benefitial to just use dual channel with the new ram.

My new ram will be ddr4 dual channel 16gb or 32gb.

Pc mostly for gaming.

You shouldn’t mix RAM.
