Dear fcM127qP, Greetings, this is ASRock TSD. DIMM Socket Support 2 -> Only support two memory modules on the system. (A1/B1 or A2/B2) DIMM Socket Support 2/4 -> User can install four or two memory module on the system. (A1/B1/A2/B2 or A1/B1 or A2/B2) Memory QVL: http://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/B450M%20Pro4/index.asp#Memory Thanks! All the best, ASRock TSD |

Hello, memory I have bought for x399 phantom gaming 6 says Dimm Support 2 only , I have bought 8 of these memories, does this mean they all won't work on my motherboard? Thank you |

And why didn't you look to the QVL before getting new RAM? This is like to fill up a car with diesel and afterwards looking into the manual to see it needs fuel... sorry. But RAM in all slots will always be a bit tricky to run succesfull, even if it is in the QVL. SS (single sided) will be easier to handle compared to DS (double sided). You maybe have to start first with 4 sticks. These memories? What kind of memory? ------------- Asrock Fatal1ty X370 Professional Gaming Offline Under test: MSI X570_MEG_ACE | AMD Ryzen 9 3900X | Scythe Mugen5 | 2x16GB F4-3200C14D-32GTZ@3466 | ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FE |

Ok, 8 x 8 SS. They probably will not run at 3200Mhz by just selecting XMP profile and frequency, even with 4 sticks. And even if you do not want to overclock, you have to get some knowledge regarding RAM and Ryzen Threadripper and the technics from the overclockers, if you do not want to run the RAM with 2133Mhz or lower or if only the half of the RAM will work... ------------- Asrock Fatal1ty X370 Professional Gaming Offline Under test: MSI X570_MEG_ACE | AMD Ryzen 9 3900X | Scythe Mugen5 | 2x16GB F4-3200C14D-32GTZ@3466 | ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FE |
