RAM 4 slots or 2?
Hey all,
What is generally considered better and why?
I'm considering a RAM upgrade to 16GB for my Asus Maximus Hero VI motherboard. It has 4 memory slots for dual channel. My local supplier only has the memory I want in 2x4GB modules. If I purchase 2 kits to make up the 16GB is this less preferable to rather waiting for a 2x8 kit to be ordered. Is there any disadvantage to using all 4 slots as opposed to 2? I will be over clocking using the standard XMP profile only.
Future upgrading is not a concern as I will not likely need to move beyond 16GB for the life of this build.
Thanks!
