[SOLVED] Need a single 16gb ram stick

[Deanosaurus]

Hi guys, I'm looking whee I could buy a single 16 gb ram stick, preferably corsair as I already have a Corsair Vengeance 1600 MHz stick in my computer, but looking to upgrade to 24 gb at least.

Unfortunately my motherboard only has 2 ram slots.

My motherboard and processor specs are below.

Asus Z97-P (Intel Z97) 4xUSB3/2xUSB2

Intel i7 4790K - (4 x 4.0 GHZ) - Haswell

You need to check the motherboard again I think you have listed the wrong one that one has 4 slots.

1 Sticks of 16GB of DDR3 usually only supported on the Buffered ECC model, tho there are some ram kits that are non ecc. But the motherboard could only do 8GB per stick, so even if you find one, it probably wont boot up since it's not supported. why dont do 4x4GB or 2x8GB?

Sorry my bad, I do have 4 slots looked like 2 at first glance.

Yes just going to do 2 8gb sticks as I've just realised my mb does have 4 slots, not 2.

Yep, must easier. You should also be able to use your current memory module for a total of 24GB if you get a 2x8GB 16GB set since ddr3 was always pretty forgiving on running that way.
