Aurora R8, increasing ram
I have at present 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 2666MHz UDIMM ram. I was wanting to upgrade my RAM. Can I put 64GB (4x16GB) card or 128GB (2x32GB) cards in my Aurora R8? What are the advantages or disadvantages of increasing to 64GB or 128GB as opposed to just increasing the RAM to 32GB (4x8GB)?
Thanks

R8 ram specifications and validated memory configurations are listed here: R8 memory guide
Due to the low support of aftermarket ram, it is highly recommended to use the validated memory modules only. Aftermarket memory modules might or might not work.

I upgrade my R8 with corsair vengnce 32gb(2x16gb) 3200. First boot didn't load the computer, then I reinserted it again before it booted. It auto XMP the ram so it saved me time though I missed the opening message when I was pressing F2. A don't think you missing anything if you upgrading to more ram unless your using a Ryzen cpu, but I would upgrade it to the max speed of 3200. The max the R8 can use is 64gb but that is overkill for an average user.
