Looking for some help with a memory upgrade.
I need to upgrade memory as 6 gb is not enough any more.
I have an Asus P6X58D premium motherboard.
Memory fitted is Kingston HyperX 6GB (3x2GB) Intel XMP DDR3 12800C9 1600MHz Tri-Channel Kit.

I am a PC build novice.

Can I fit another three 2gb sticks to make it 12gb?

Do Overclockers stock compatible memory?

Thanks for all advice.

yes, and 12gb is enough.

yes, but advice would be to get it 2nd hand for much cheaper.
any working 3x2gb ddr3 memory sticks (in addition to your current 3x2gb sticks)should be sufficient - as long as you're not going for monster memory overclocks, these should play nicely together.
no point getting new ddr3 memory now as it is a dead-end tech, all boards have switched to ddr4 memory, so in your next full upgrade, you wouldn't be able to use it :)
