Can a GTX 1070 deliver a satisfactory experience with 1440p resolution?
I concur, I'd most likely do the same. Provided they cooperate effectively, it’s typically acceptable. However, frequently, they fail to function harmoniously. As long as they do, there’s generally little concern. I would prefer a 32GB setup utilizing two 16GB modules over four 8GB modules, though occasionally you are limited to your options.
Indeed, I would certainly advise running them at their designated XMP profile speeds. You’ll need to configure this setting within the BIOS – it's a relatively simple process. This resource should provide all necessary information regarding how to accomplish this, and I suggest reviewing it thoroughly, potentially multiple times, with the goal of establishing the XMP profile. As I mentioned previously, with four modules, you *might* require a slight increase in DRAM (Memory) voltage due to the tendency of four modules at high speeds to sometimes exhibit instability with default XMP settings. However, they could potentially work, so experiment and only address voltage adjustments if stability is not achieved.
Should the system fail to initialize (POST) after several attempts, it will likely restart itself a few times during the memory training process. In this scenario, power off, remove two modules, power on, access the BIOS, locate the DRAM voltage setting and raise it by 0.005v, save your changes, exit the BIOS, reinstall the remaining modules and attempt to power on again to see if it POSTs.
If you lack the confidence or expertise, I recommend seeking assistance from someone experienced, such as a professional retailer.

A kind gust of assistance, thank you so much! I’m creating a new discussion to gather multiple perspectives regarding an equipment upgrade. If you could review it, I’d value your thoughts immensely. Please share your opinion, and please note that I won't be initiating further threads to avoid over-posting.
