Hello folks,

Ram being a decent price Im thing of buying more but, , ,

I have 8gig ram & Z68 board with an I5 @3.8 running nice.
Thinking of getting another 8gig of the same ram that will fill all 4 slots, but will it mess things up as I have it OCed ?

Maybe you will need more info, but trying like this first incase its an easy answer.

I'd say you'll be perfectly fine and it won't have any effect on your modest overclock.

I've two Sandy Bridge systems with 16GB of RAM and both are overclocked far beyond 3.8GHz without any problems.
 
Recently put in another 8GB into my system, same clock and voltage no issues, if anything its made things smoother, BF3 used to BSOD and crash allot with 8GB, not a single problem with 16GB.

How the extra memory and BF3 stability has happened I'm not overly sure, peak system usage I saw was 6GB...
