Thread closed

Not many are, but this is for the remaining few. Yes, it's mostly on budget builds.

so what youre trying to tell me is,

who the fuck cares?

On budget
Can't afford 2 sticks
So don't buy buy build at all
Ghot logic

No, buy two sticks in matched set (or 4, if quad channel board), no matter what your budget. DON"T mix & match RAM.

My laptop only has one stick. I'm waiting on a sail 4 sum di$$ount$.

So what you're saying is.. I can cut my desktop memory in two and use it in my laptop?

How do they match sets ghot?

whens dat ddr4 comming out....
