Hello everyone, welcome! I know this might sound a bit basic after spending 15 years at an internet cafe, but I understand you're asking for advice. You're considering upgrading your MSI Z490-A Pro motherboard with a 10700k processor and using the G.Skill Ripjaws V 4x8GB RAM. After watching a YouTube video suggesting that dual-channel isn't necessary if the board supports it, I'm feeling uncertain about whether my choice was right. Would switching to two 16GB modules at 3600MHz C18 be a better option? Thanks in advance! Also, your RTX 2080 GPU seems fine unless you need more performance.

Hey there! Just a quick note about the 4x8GB kit—if you already bought it, you might want to skip it since you won’t be able to upgrade to 64GB without swapping your current RAM. If you didn’t, consider the 2x16GB option, but steer clear of the 3600MHz CL18. I’d recommend something like a 3600MHz CL16 or a 3200MHz CL14 B-die kit for better performance and overclocking potential.

The CPU only allows dual-channel operation, meaning adding more than two RAM sticks won’t boost performance beyond two. Keep it as it is since 32GB should work well for the foreseeable future.

Playing mainly PUBG and COD games. I placed an order and think I can adjust it, but only if it doesn’t match the performance of the two-tier versions. I don’t want to alter the setup unless necessary.

Bandwidth remains consistent because each LGA 1200 CPU features just two memory channels. You’ll gain capacity without overloading the 16 Gb IMX16. Choose a Cl16 3600 setup and it should work well.

Play only with 2x 8GB and stop there. You won’t gain any extra storage benefits.

It’s unclear whether using four RAM sticks affects performance when your CPU only supports dual-channel. It may not impact speed at all, or it could be similar to a dual-module setup of two 16GB sticks. If you notice slower speeds with just four sticks, you might consider upgrading.

Using four sticks offers no significant benefit, yet the CPU doesn’t fully utilize more than two. For instance, 2x16GB works the same as 4x8GB.

You're welcome. The main point is that the price change is minimal at just 20 euros, so I don't feel the need to alter the order for any reason.
