It’s possible to have both 8GB and 32GB in the same machine, but it depends on the configuration. If dual-channel is used, the 16GB should be split between them—likely one channel for 8GB and another for 8GB, or optimized for performance. The rest would typically be single-channel. You might want to stick with 32GB now and upgrade later if needed. Thanks!

This amount of memory is likely sufficient for most tasks, especially games.

They can definitely fit on the same machine, but it’s uncertain. Also, a dual-channel setup only supports up to 8GB. What’s the point of needing 64GB then?

Maybe it's better to start with a smaller setup and expand later. The extra capacity isn't necessary right now.

Because I own two Razer Blades measuring 15 inches, with one having 2x8GB and the other 2x32GB, I’m looking for a more uniform configuration.

I mainly rely on it for DayTrading, yet beside it I'm operating a VirtualBox with ParrotOS KDE and of course playing games.

The heavy use happens when I display charts during coding in VirtualBox while creating a video or something similar.

Yes, that's correct. With dual configuration, 8GB would be split into two 4GB units, allowing dual operation. For 24GB, it would run as four 6GB units. Confirming your setup!

It's a bit unclear what you're asking, but I'm trying my best to help. You seem to be considering factors like speed, capacity, and compatibility when choosing RAM. It might be better to prioritize stability over maximum performance unless you're certain about your needs. Mixing different types of RAM can also cause issues with XMP settings, and manually overclocking could add complexity.
