Memory upgrade

[CreakyPuppet]

After a failed attempt to upgrade system memory last year it's time to try again.

PC currently has 16GB KINGSTON HYPER-X FURY DDR4 2400MHz (2 x 8GB) of memory in it, planning on upgrading to 32GB.

Is it best to get 4*8GB or 2*16GB to replace the above with? Any suggestions on what type of memory.

The motherboard is the ASUS® X99-A and the processor is Intel® Core™i7 Six Core Processor i7-5820K (3.3GHz) 15MB Cache, system is used for gaming and starting to do more video editing.

4*8gb as it's a quad channel mobo

Thanks, that's what I've been looking at.

Is G.SKILL memory any good rather than Kingston

I'm sure there will be reviews that go into it in great detail, and enthusiasts that would shoot me on sight for saying this, but I doubt there's all that much difference between RAM of the same timings and frequencies from different brands. I'd probably buy whatever was cheapest or had the best warranty.

Got no complaints about my GSkill 2400MHz DDR3 though, it plugged and played beautifully.

Great, thanks
