Query about RAM
Query about RAM
Hello, I own an Intel i7-10700K CPU and an ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XII FORMULA motherboard. 1) Concern: If I use a dual-channel setup and add RAM plus four slots, could there be any issues? 2) Concern: With the Intel Core i7-10700K and one of the DDR4 RAM options (2133, 2666, 2933, 3200, 3600, 3800), will my system face problems? Specifically, will it run smoothly or experience low performance? The Intel website lists the CPU and mentions memory specs: up to 128 GB, DDR4-2933, two channels, 45.8 GB/s bandwidth, no ECC support.
no issues, employing four memory sticks equates to two dual channels. slots 2 and 4 function together, while slots 1 and 3 operate in pairs. i could be misinterpreting your query, but are you checking if the system supports a single stick? if yes, then it can work with one stick. ideally, choose slot number 2 (from the left/CPU side). also, having two sticks at least in slots 2 and 4 is recommended, as most modern systems gain advantages from dual channel memory.
Sorry my English. First of all. Thank you for your answer my first question. I want to say, For example, if I buy RAM G.Skill F4-2400C15Q-32GRK Ripjaws 4 DDR4-2400MHz CL15-15-15-35 1.20V 32GB (4x8GB) and I install on the motherboard ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XII FORMULA with CPU Intel i7-10700K, will the system work? I say because the website Intel, it mention the CPU Intel® Core ™ i7-10700K Processor: Memory Specifications Max Memory Size (dependent on memory type): 128 GB Memory Types: DDR4-2933 Max # of Memory Channels: 2 Max Memory Bandwidth: 45.8 GB/s ECC Memory Supported: No
It handles up to 2 memory channels at a time, each with two sticks, meaning it offers two dual-channel configurations.
I wanted to clarify that the choice of 2x16GB was made so you could expand your storage later.
