When I built this PC I figured that 16 GB would be plenty, but fact is ever since I've been using it...it's been a struggle to use more than 1 major program at once. Running a video game with a browser open is basically out of the question. So I've been wanting to upgrade my RAM and I have a few questions
1. I currently have 16GB (2 x 8GB). I was wondering if I could just put any old thing in the other 2 slots? I was thinking if I added 32GB (2x16GB) that would bring my total up to 48GB which should be good enough to multitask.
2. If it's not a good idea to slot in other types of RAM I know my kit was CMK16GX4M2B3200C16. https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Catego...6GX4M2B3200C16 I'm wondering if this is still good ram? I bought it a few years ago and so I'm wondering if it's still considered good/fast. If so would just buying the exact same kit and putting it in the other 2 slots be best?
3. Would it be best to just start all over and throw out the 16GB I have and buy a 32 or 64 GB kit?
