I to buy another set of 2x4Gb to upgrade to a total of 16Gb of RAM. I am planning on buying the EXACT same RAM sticks.
However, I've heard there were issues when trying to populate all 4 DIMM slots when using a motherboard that only supports Dual Channel at OC'ed speeds (like my motherboard). It says that doing this will default the RAM at stock speeds of 2400Mhz. Is this true or is there a workaround to this?
