Question 1

I just purchased this and besides everyday internet stuff, I only play BF4. Do I need to, or will I notice any difference if I add another 16 gigs???

Accepted Answer

Most likely not. You can use the task manager to check how much memory your using when you do any activity (like playing bf4) if your not even close to max mammoth usage (say 90%) then you don't even have to think about it

Question 2

Is this ram compatible with the msi 970 gaming motherboard with an AMD FX 8350 processor?

Accepted Answer

On the website for that board they list under specs the recommended memory modules that you would want to use for this board. I typically would go off the manufactuer recommendation, unless you want to contact them directly and they can get you a different answer.

DDR3 Memory
DDR3 1066/1333/1600/1866/2133*(*OC)

Check out MSI's website for your board and click on specs to see.

Question 3

Will this work with the i7-4790K Processor and the MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition Intel Motherboard? The Motherboard supports this rams frequency of 2400Mhz but the CPU supports only DDR3 1366/1600 or DDR3L 1366/1600. Do I have to Overclock certain components of it to make it work? According to PC Part Picker, it is compatible but I need to be absolutely positive that it will work.

Accepted Answer

I have to say I haven't had an issue with performance, thus far.  Pretty good performance with my Battlefield game, Warcraft is even better, no loss of speed or latency.  I haven't had to adjust any component up to this point.  With the slight increase of MHz maybe a tweak will be needed to that aspect.  You should be fine.

Question 4

I'm looking at getting this ram for my build but I do not know 
if I should get the 1866 0r 2400 clock. What is the difference? I have an ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z Motherboard. Which is better?

Accepted Answer

The 2400 MHz is better due to it being able to handle a higher clock speed. It's not bether by a huge margin but the difference is one will run faster than the other. You will have to apply a small over clocking to your CPU though in order to give it more voltage. This will be necessary to run both speed types of ram that your looking at. Although this can be done quite easily if your motherboard contains a UEFI BIOS which I believe it does.

Question 5

asus pro motherboard manual lists module with same number except the last 3 digits which are 10r instead of 11r. Will this memory module work in this motherboard?

Accepted Answer

This model of RAM wasn't on the ASUS compatibility list for my build either, but works just fine on this GENE IV.

ASUS can't possibly test every module on the market, on every board; so they put together a list of RAM modules they've tested and then they'll guarantee anything from that list works.

I've never matched anything to an ASUS compatibility list but as long as it matched the timings/sizes .. it ran just fine. (10+ machines)

Question 6

Will my motherboard GA-78LMT-USB3 and AMD FX-8320 Eight-Core Processor be compatible with these sticks of RAM?

Accepted Answer

Yep, but it will probably downclock. Your CPU looks like it supports 1866Mhz at stock speeds.

Question 7

Would This RAM be Compatible with the ASRock Z97 Anniversary MOBO?  Google has been no help in confirming but from what I read My motherboard should support the Speed.  Would love if someone might know for sure before I sink money into it.  Thanks.

Accepted Answer

Yes this ram is compatible with the motherboard.

Question 8

can you mix cmy32gx3m4a2400c11r and CMY16GX3M2A2400C11R?  I only got one of the 8g stick of ram from the computer store I had the computer built at. And I would like to add some more. But the mortherboard 4 ram slots so get 4 more is point less.

Accepted Answer

I'm not entirely sure what the differences are between the model numbers... I would strongly recommend against mix and matching memory (Speeds, capacity etc..) Can you go back to the computer store and have them match the memory inside?? Otherwise I would just buy a pair or two pair of the same type and go with that... Memory can be had for pretty cheap these days. Sorry not much help.

Question 9

Will this work with Amd FX 8x processor? my Mb support this speed.

Accepted Answer

It should, however it has more to do with your MB than your CPU, look up your MB documentation and make sure that the physical memory ports are 240-pin, if they are and you have already confirmed that the speed is supported, they should work.

Question 10

The motherboard I have is an Asus P8Z77-V LK Intel Z77 DDR3 LGA 1155 Motherboard. I would like to make sure that this RAM is compatible with my mother board before I make the purchase. I need at least 16GB to do what I need to do and if this RAM is not compatible then which ones do you guys recommend? I need it to be a fast computer so that more MHz the better.

Accepted Answer

As it is ddr3 ram it should work with your motherboard. It's good fast memory and serve me well
