Yes, the i7-9700 might face issues when using four PCIe 4.0 slots with a Kingston 3600MHz CL17 card.
It looks like you're asking about your system upgrades. You mentioned an i7-9700 CPU and whether you added more RAM. Clarify if you'd like help checking those details or optimizing your setup!
I switch from an i3 8100 and replace the old 2x4GB RAM with a new one, but I’m aiming for 32GB because I’ve seen many positive reviews comparing 32GB versus 16GB. Having more memory should make the system run much smoother.
16 GB works just fine. The only time I see the jump to 32 GB is during flight simulation. Windows handles memory better now.
I operate with a simple software configuration and games are the sole focus. Even after several caching cycles, I consistently reach around 14GB of system RAM usage with newer titles. For certain games, the demand increases noticeably.
