Also Id like to ask, if I purchase 3 of those RAMS and one DIMM slot is empty does it affect the performance? Since these DIMM slots are like doubles.

You are better buying kits (2x2GB or 4x2GB) as they're manufactured to work together, but it should be OK. You would lose the dual channel function though.
Yes that makes sense, Im going to boost up the memory a bit to 16GB no less. So Ill get 4 RAM sticks of 4GB for each DIMM slot. Totaling up to 16GB which would be suffice for now.
So I think your effort and assistance is accomplished guys. Thanks for the patients and support and Ill give a brief update how the PCs performance goes when I get my RAM on the weekend.
Kind regards.
Hi forum.
I purchased today the follow kingston Rams. PC seems to be running nice and smooth. 16GB in total, I got 2 kits 4GB each stick.

Good to hear, I'm glad everything seems to be running smooth. If you have any more issues let us know.
Hi guys.
unfortunately I copt a BSOD again after one week... I thought the issue was solved but seems its not after all.
My screen as I was about to turn off my pc gave me this error message:
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
I'm a bit disappointed that my issue wasn't resolved as I thought. But Ill tackle it again in future at some point, because I need
my pc desperately at this current stage.
