[@theftking]

i9s don't support quad channel; all consumer CPU platforms have dual channel controllers. That said, you should _never_ run more than two sticks of ram in a PC with a dual-channel memory controller. Especially considering how high the capacities are on DDR5 modules, there's literally no reason to. Anyone who needs more than 64GB of RAM is probably doing some specialized stuff and should be on HEDT. Motherboard manufacturers should just stop putting four DIMM slots on; all it does is dupe people who are trying to build "the most baller PC" into handicapping their memory speeds in exchange for a bunch of extra capacity they'll _never use._

its more about aesthetics. people that want the highest baller pc possible use 2 sticks. what they need to start doing is making fake ram like corsair did. I personally like the 4 stick look, however, if there was only 2 slots it also would look full

[@JayzBeerz]

my 13600K runs fine with 4 sticks at 6000MHz depends on the motherboard and BIOS.

[@LtSheppardXxL]

thats just bullshit, until now with ddr5 and intels last two gens and some ryzen issues 4 channels was completly fine. its even been proven you get a average of 5% fps bump with 4 ram sticks of lower mem like 4x8 gb vs 2x16gb or even 1x32gb. Its just companies are not fixing this for whatever reason. Yes it might be true the future of ram will be a single or double ram. BUT even intel and ryzen claim they work with 4x ram. I think CAMM will honestly be the best thing to hit the industry in forevor tbh

[@OrrWeisbergReviews]

Yes I also had 4 sticks at first I tried to run them at 6800mhz that failed miserably. Then I lowered to 6000 and that was actually pretty stable but still I decided in the end to get 2 sticks 32gb each at 6400mhz

[@TheDude50447]

Mem Controller on the 13900k only Supports dual channel no matter how many dimm slots you fill. With identical sticks it will double the ranks though

[@Izzy-vz6iu]

Processor itself matter to the ram

[@TheDude50447]

@@Izzy-vz6iu Im not sure if I understand you correctly. But yes what processor you use matters for the ram in many ways. Regular desktop hardware no matter which manufacturer only supports dual channel. Which means you get a significant performance boost by going from 1 to 2 sticks of ram and putting it in the right slots if you got 4 dimm slots. Going from 2 sticks to 4 also does something by doubling the memory ranks which was for example for Ryzen 3000 and 5000 a good way to improve your performance. Other cpus dont really care that much about ranks. Another factor is the memory controller which used to be on the northbridge but has been integrated into the cpu several years back. The quality of that memory controller dictates how fast you can operate your ram. The early ryzen chips were notorious for their bad memory controllers.

[@MetallixX974]

I managed with success to run 4 sticks on a AM4 platform (3600 Mhz - 128 GB ram) on a Asus B550M TUF Gaming Plus.

XMP profile was not booting everytime, sometimes it's better to set manualy the RAM profile.

From what i understand it should be fine to use quad channel ddr5 as long as each stick is single rank if all sticks are dual rank (tends to be the case with higher priced kits) and you fill all channels it makes the ram unstable

It needs to be the same serial number. So you can’t buy 2 sets of 2 you need to buy 1 set of 4 with same serial number for ddr5. Even then you take a risk on it not working. Right now it’s safer to use 2x32 ddr5 that’s usually enough and runs flawlessly 99% of the time.

It is not quad channel. The cpu and motherboard does not dupport quad channel. Look it up before commenting.
