You have yet more issues

a) two of them require XMP to work and the 1st one doesn't support XMP, that will mean doing all speed, voltage and timing adjustments manually.
b) two need 1.5 volts to run at any speed, the 1st maxes out at 1.35 volts; so dropping the 1.5 sets to 1.35 volts is unsupported thereby taking the wind outta the sails for the down clocking idea... and running the 1st set at 0.15 volts above the rated voltage is a bit scary.

I went looking for game performance comparisons for Rust w/ 8 vs 16 GB and came up dry ... if you know of any, would love to read them.






Did you move one of the corsair sticks when you installed the kingston? if not it looks like you were running your ram in single channel before. you should put the corsair sticks 1 slot apart from each other
