The memory details you received are about compatibility and performance settings. The ASRock B450M Pro4 supports DDR4 memory, so your Vengeance LPX 16GB should work. However, the specs mention running at lower speeds (2933 or 2667) for optimal performance with four sticks in a 2x8GB configuration. This suggests that while you can technically run all sticks at 3200MHz, doing so may not fully utilize the memory's potential and could lead to slower overall performance. It’s best to stick to the recommended speeds listed on the motherboard page for the best results.
To check if your RAM is SR or DR, you can use software like MemTest86 or run a memory diagnostic tool. These will confirm whether your sticks are compatible and identify any issues.
Regarding memory sizes, mismatching sizes (like 2x8 vs 2x16) can cause problems. Ensure all sticks match the same capacity and speed requirements as specified for your motherboard.
