Hey guys,
I've recently put together a new PC (with some help picking parts from this forum;
http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...-700ish-budget ).
I was relatively short on cash at the time, and have in the meantime ran into some spare cash I can throw at it, so I was looking at getting a couple more RAM sticks and a HDD (which currently I'm just using an old repurposed external HDD I dont fully trust).
I currently have 8GB RAM (GeIL 8 GB DDR3-1600 Kit, 2x4gb), and while I know it wont make a huge difference to go to 16gb, I'm not looking forward to replace any of the other parts I got just a couple months ago; It's more of a small future-proofing (plus I do some video editing now and again, and I also have a habit of multitasking while playing).
My question is, should I just grab another 2x4 of those I already have? Or would it be better to grab 2x4, 1866mhz or 1600mhz from another model? I know they are normally used in pairs of the same, but how does it go with 2 pairs? To clarify I'm keeping the old 4x2 1600mhz ones, just adding 2 more sticks to it (mobo has 4 slots).
Sorry for the dumb question, and thanks in advance
