Question 1

I currently have 2 16GB (32GB Total) in the first 2 slots of this MB. Am I limited to another 32GB total RAM of can I purchase a larger RAM and do I need the additional RAM in both slots or can it just be one?

Accepted Answer

It's best to file the dual channels, that's why ram comes in sets of 2. You'll want t I put it in either slots 1&3 or 2&4 (leave a space between your sticks) because those are connected and will give your ram the best performance. That being said, you can purchase more later if you find your ram is under performing. Hope that helps

Question 2

I just happen to have a 8600G processor. Will it work with this MB?
