Hello Peace and Love fellow tech lovers,
Just a quick question, my system had 32GB of Ram consisting of a matched set of 2 sticks of XMP DDR4 3200 that are dual ranked, which is really great man, as time has passed and AI becomming a thing, that sort of got me intrested in playing around with some models, while optimizing the models with ONNX I noticed my system ram was using around 30+ GB of system ram so I decided I wanted to add another 32GB but really wanted to max out the motherboard to 128GB as one model needed 80-95GB of system ram 😱
But due to budget and cost of living decided I will just have to make do with 64GB system Ram (4x16GB)
the second 32GB kit i got is the same brand as the 32GB kit i already had installed in the system, apart from one itzy bitzy thing, this 32GB kit is single ranked 🙁 Heavy man!
so I have put the matched dual ranked kit in channel one an the single ranked matched kit in the second channel, I also went into the bios and disabled memory interleaving due to using dual and single ranked ram sticks.
I am currently running them a the jedec ratings of 2133mhz, my CPU is the AMD R9 5900X which can offically support 4 sticks of single rank at 2933MHz or 4 sticks of dual rank ram at 2666MHz.
with the way I have the ram configured, channel 1 dual ranked ram sticks and channel 2 the single ranked sticks am i still able to run the ram at the offically supported 2 rank ram speeds of 2666MHz with the mix of ranked ram?
I know people will say you should of bought a four stick matched set in the first place and I would agree but not everyone can afford to buy the amount of ram they may (or may not need) at the time of building the system.
Personally I think its about time these big RAM companys started clearly putting on the front of the RAM packaging the RANK of the DIMMS you are buying just out of fairness even more so for those who cant afford to buy 4x sticks of ram all at once, or dont they really care about what you get just as long as they get your money and you take what your given 🙁 thats soggy lentils man.
