    My (2013) PC needs (32GB) RAM upgrade and I wonder if 2400 Mhz is too much for my setup.

    Thank you, that was my point. Thank You all for your help. I ordered a 1866MHZ DDR3 32GB (4x8GB) G.SKILL Sniper F3-1866C10Q-32GSR. Those reviews scared me a lot. Thanks again. *No additional upgrades for my current PC - I already started browsing for my next new build. *PS: My old RAM (2x8GB)...

    My (2013) PC needs (32GB) RAM upgrade and I wonder if 2400 Mhz is too much for my setup.

    Thank you for your replies. > Will they run @2400 Mhz? Probably yes, my MB supports this and others have reported this. > Will my RAM remain stable @ 1.65W for 99% of the time used? Probably no. So, is the risk worth taking? imho probably no. Not at all. Does RAM Speed Matter? DDR3-1600 vs...

    PSU fan replacement: 4 pin fan instead of 3 pin. Will this work?

    Thank You for your reply. That`s exactly what I was afraid off. - That (voltage) speed control will be completely lost? So my only option is 3 pin fan and also no 4-to-3-pin adapters or anything similar? Thank You.
