[SOLVED] Using 2 ram sticks in 4 slot dual channel memory?

[imhelpless]

Hi,

Just wondering if its possible to use 4 sticks of memory on a dual channel board with 4 slots. I recently upgraded my ram from 16GB-2666 (hyperx) to 16gb-3200 (kingston)

My motherboard model is an ASRock Steel Legend b450.

Yes, you could use 4 slots up to 64GB total RAM.
Are you mixing the 2666MHz and the 3200Mhz memory.
If you do, then your RAM might run at 2666MHz,, or even lower or might not even work at all.

You need to check your motherboard manual, especially if this is ddr4 which is very fickle on these type of setups.
