Just saw the highest RAM usage so far, 28GB. That's with FSHud+AIG running. Now page file is starting to get used, so far 2.7%. MSFS is using around 8GB.

Sir do you have any recommendations on 2x32gb sticks

 

At 6000mhz? 

My current 2 sticks are 2x16gb g skill trident 6000mhz cl30

I’ve been using G.Skill for a few years, been happy with that. But sorry, no specific recommendations 

EDIT: These look great https://www.gskill.com/product/165/390/1692584825/F5-6000J3036G32GX2-TZ5NRW

No worries. Just remember to check that it’s compatible with MB. Should be a list both at MB and RAM websites.

Will do

Understand that your comment wasn't aimed at me, but I did some research on 4 vs 2 sticks on my AM4 platform and the subject is as clear as mud. My conclusion was that it only mattered if you wanted to achieve maximum overclocking by adjusting voltages and timings seperately rather than go with one of the RAM profiles which is what I do.

You can't compare DDR4 and DDR5. What he is saying is correct because of AM5 and DDR5. It's harder for the IMC to run DDR5, so once you move beyond 2 sticks, you get into shaky territory. It CAN be done, sometimes it works just fine but a lot of users experience not being able to boot, instability, having to straight up lower their speeds or loosen timings to get it to boot. All depends on how strong your memory controller is, which is a lottery.

So if you want a smooth experience, you stick with 2.

Microsoft have been doing this to their customers since they started to make flight simulators,
the Christmas party has been looking good for as many years, sponsored by the likes of you and I.

Not me, I never fall for it.  

The RAM on my wishlist is now the same price as the difference from Standard to Premium Deluxe 😬 obviously the latter is more worthy which will mean I'll get PD and end up upgrading RAM in a couple months anyway 🤪

if they are on your MB QVL list then great 👍

keep in mind if have problems to run 6000mhz cl30 with 32gb, its much harder on the memcontroller to run 64gb

and second you need to raise the voltage to 1.4v from 1.35v on most kits

Tried the simple upgrade from 32GB to 64 GB DDR4 yesterday.  I must have a motherboard that only likes 2 sticks as all 3 attempts at flights post RAM change resulted in system lockups and CTD's.  Removed the two additional sticks and flew a 12 hour flight.  I guess I will be looking for 2 32GB sticks instead...
