So I have a B450 motherboard and originally had 16 gb of DDR4 Ram at 3000 mhz installed. I purchased the exact same ram to upgrade to 32 gb and at first I was alarmed that it kept booting then immediately restarting right after I added power but it did boot me into the bios where I changed the speed and voltage to match the other set. However once I got to my Home Screen something was completely messed up. I couldn’t connect to any networks (no networks appeared) and the sound had a red X through it and it said audio services are unavailable. I couldn’t use the windows search feature either when trying to navigate to the CMD window to check for issues. K couldn’t run any troubleshooters either ( seemed like something corrupted in the process somehow) I ultimately had to reset my whole PC to get it back up and running. And yes I did install it correctly, ensured the right speed, and it was reading 4 sticks at 32 gb.
i found out mine is DIMM DDR4 does the model matter which one i get mine doesnt have a model on it so im a little bit confused for example if i get a corsair or a crucial one does it matter..? im on 16 ram atm i need 48 & my pc says i got 4 slots but all i see is 2 slots
How do you know exactly if you need to skip a channel in between the 2? On mine someone said I'd have to but I'm still not sure because I'm not really noticing any difference.
Got 4-16gb corsair installed. Seemed to work just fine and started up with no issue. My PC is only 2666 and I bought 3600Mhz. How do I check its running at correct speed?
What no one talks about is the software side of things. Can 2 kits of 2x16 GB of RAM work fine with each other? There’s also the fact that motherboards have capacity limitations which is why my X570 is probably not posting with two kits installed (totaling 4).
deadass my pc came with a DDR5 and i purchased the same one from amazon and just installed it i didn’t make sure it was the same or anything i mean they both 8GB
@@NyctophiliaOfficial Yeah. In my case, my dumba$$ wasn’t making sure they were seated properly so my PC wasn’t posting. Both my processor (5900X) and my mobo (TUF GAMING X570 Plus) can handle up to 128 GB of RAM. On the flip side, you definitely want to make sure your RAM is QVL supported for the corresponding motherboard. Sometimes you can also get bad RAM which may not cause the system to boot or cause instabilities. Even when buying the same model RAM, double check to make sure the CAS latencies and timings match up between the two kits.

Try taking out the CMOS battery with no ram in and the computer unplugged Depending on the board you have it doesn't support 3600mhz so taking the CMOS battery out will set it back to default speeds

@@stepbrotwisty so if your comp is automatically taking you to bios then its because you are trying to start your pc with another drive that doesn't have your windows on it (if I'm not mistaken). You just need to make sure your boot device is selected as the device you were using already with windows so your comp boots normally. The additional ssds should be simple plug in and maybe format if its just for extra space. Feel free to message if you need pointers.

I know it will probably "work" just asking is there any problems/negatives to it! Appreciate you My Brother! Great channel/videos My G! 🤘🏽
It can work, that problem can be they have different values of latency. This could cause the PC to have some problems. But if you already have the sticks just try it
@NWCPcbenchmarks Ahhh! I see! 😏🫡 I actually thought that! Really Appreciate You My G! Def helps! Especially because I figured as much but wanted to be 100% positive. I've just never heard anyone else ask/talk about it really. & anyone I know that knows anything about building PCs/PC Parts/etc. all said the same! Its not "Law" that you use the same kind/brand of Ram in your PC already but they advise it just as you did! Keep up the great work my brother! ✊🏽🫡🫡🫡
Ya there's different cases for everything, not every part is made the same and it's not law.
I used two different ram sticks in a friends PC with no problems. Tried on my ryzen build and it wouldn't run right even after changing speeds and latency
@@NWCPcbenchmarks Really appreciate your Help My G! 🤘🏽🫡
Mine is not clicking when I put it and I’m scared to break it and when I pull the lever to make it in place it doesn’t go any the wall
Nvm press harder no scary preese oh shit scared break
How do you find out what type of stuff can be supported by the computer for ram
Look up your motherboard you have and it will have a list of supported ram type and speeds.
If I had 2×8 could i just add 2 more 8 gb sticks to the other 2 vacant slots to make 32 gb total?
Yes but get a match to what you already have, or it could be a pain to make it work
@@NWCPcbenchmarks yeah I was going to buy another set of ram identical to the one I have.thanks for taking the time to reply to my question
Hey man I’m gonna buy the same pc as you but I have a question when I’ll have my pc will I have the same ram as you or do we have different ram even if it’s the same pc ?
Not the new one I’m talking bout the old one
It's completely random on what brand you get
@@NWCPcbenchmarks I’m buying the same pc as you the same brand will I have the same ram ?
No it comes with random ram
Could be any brand
@@NWCPcbenchmarks oh ok and another question why did u remove the old one and only put the new one is it bad to mix them ?
Can I have a link of your pc?
Legend!
Im kinda confused if i get more ram does it have to be the same speed that my motherboard takes or will it auto set to the speed of ram i buy
Auto will set to what the motherboard can support
@@NWCPcbenchmarks thank you im upgrading my ram for the first time
I have the same pc but can I get a Corsair 3200mhz 4 sticks and I have the same motherboard as you in the video thanks
It will automatically set it self to 2666
I'd suggest getting a slower speed, with lower cl to get a little more boost for the dollar
Thanks man for the help
You're welcome
when i tied it it went black and i though i broke it so i put my old ram back thanks so much i will see if this work
thanks for the video but... my man whats up with the light mode discord
How do I I know what order to put them in in order to do dual channel
Have to look up your manual to see what it says to be safe
How are you liking your rgb on ballistixs? I hate the rgb. MOD never works motherboard sees it sometimes only
I like them, I had a problem with them as well I needed to download the app and make it open automatically with start up
@@NWCPcbenchmarks I ended up getting Corsair. After trying everything.
nice
do the ram have to match brands? or can i just add a random one
Not always
Will a PNY XLR8 16GB Gaming DDR4 2666MHz Desktop Memory Kit work
Yes
do you know the link to the old stick of ram u had?
Can't find it
It's xpg 3000mhz ddr4 but they only sell in 2x8gb kits
Would a vengeance ddr4 ram work with this?
Yes
Hey i also upgraded ram to a 16gb. I also check the ram info and it detects 16gb rams. But nothing seems to change and I feel like it didn’t work.
Do a userbenchmark test and see how it scores
Might have to enable xmp
I just bought the 16 gb and it’s 97 with led I have the same pc as the ram can work at XPG DDR4 D50 RGB 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz PC4-25600 U-DIMM 288-Pins Desktop Memory CL16 Kit White (AX4U32008G16A-DW50) 3200 MHZ can I use more than 2667? With my motherboard or no
Nope 2666 is max
@@NWCPcbenchmarks will I get more FPS Bc it’s 16 Gbs
Over 8gb yes
@@NWCPcbenchmarks how does that work if I’m using 2666
What if I cap it as 3200 like the ram Speed I bought it at will it mess up my pc

Hi, NWC! I put my new ram into my pc but once I turn it on all I get is a black screen, any help with that?
I'd take out the ram, and CMOS with the PC unplugged for 10min and put it all back together
Same thing happened to me, did u find a fix for it?
Right now i have a stock 8gb 3000mhz ram im planning on updrading the ram, will it work if i get the same ram but a different speed?
Usually, but it can be a gamble
@@NWCPcbenchmarks update im getting a new ram maybe tomorrow or the next day still trying to figure out if CL matters or not my ram is CL 15 I believe my motherboard asrock a320m/ac planning on getting the corsair vengeance 3200 CL16
Yes lower cl the better
Let's say you have a car that goes 50mph, (2400mhz) but it only has to make 10 stopa aka cl 10 vs a car that goes 60mph (3000mhz) but has to make 16 stops aka cl 16
So finding ram that's a happy medium pays off
This is why some people say 3200mhz cl 16 is better than 3600mhz cl 18
Both are good but both have different problems
Oh ok thank you very much!
question, what if my pc doesn't turn back on after removing it and putting it back in?
Does it light up?
@@NWCPcbenchmarks yes
Take out the ram and battery off the motherboard well the PC is unplugged for 5-10min that will rest the bios
Put it all back together and plug it in
I am a gaming pc noob. I have a prebuild for cyberpower pc. its gua1400bst. The expandable ram is 16gb And I currently have 8gb RAM. Do I have to remove old RAM like you did to install 2x8gb RAM or can I just add them in the empty slots in between. Also if I want to add 32gb instead would my PC allow that if my expandable RAM is only 16gb.
It's best to just use 2 new stick but you can still use the 3 sticks but doesn't give any boost
@@NWCPcbenchmarks understood. Thank you.
I have the same pc and I’m a pc noob 😂 but I currently bought a 500gb wd ssd card and the old one was 200gb and when I put the 500gb ssd card it takes me straight to bios Nd I have no idea how to do that
@@stepbrotwisty so if your comp is automatically taking you to bios then its because you are trying to start your pc with another drive that doesn't have your windows on it (if I'm not mistaken). You just need to make sure your boot device is selected as the device you were using already with windows so your comp boots normally. The additional ssds should be simple plug in and maybe format if its just for extra space. Feel free to message if you need pointers. I'm in the process of upgrading my pc so I've been through some things lol
@@EconomicNose014 wait what do you mean by it should be formatted ?
Can i add a 4x8gbs corsair dominator 3200?
Yep
I have a motherboard where only one notch open should I push down on the ram until they close
If only one opens you still need to push down at the bottom of the ram
@@NWCPcbenchmarks ok thanks
I have the around the same pc like you would I be able to upgrade to rtx 2060 and intel i9 10850k
Yes and yes, but the motherboard wouldn't be much good for a k Intel
@@NWCPcbenchmarks what motherboard do u have?
Not a z motherboard, not much of a point buying a k Intel without having a unlocked motherboard
how do i know what my mother board caps at
read the board name and search on google for the specs
I did everything you did and it just won’t display onto the monitor
same did u find a fix!?
@@yxlx77 your board might be too weak, and ram too strong.
I followed ur advice and it's not working
hey i have 8gb atm want to go up to 16. should i buy 2 8gb sticks or can i just get one and use the one i have already?
and do the mhz have to match?
To be safe it should be the same brand, MHz and cl
Sometimes if you have different ram it will fail or go slow
@@NWCPcbenchmarks ok thanks
Can I have the link to the ram
