Z77 Extreme4 Ram Slots Upgrade
To determine part numbers for the ASRock Z77 Extreme4-M motherboard, we use best guess approach based on CPU model, frequency and features. In some cases our guess may be incorrect. Please use specifications from the compatibility list to confirm processor's part number before ordering. Both 4GB sticks of Kingston Beast work swimmingly in the suspect RAM slot 3. Also, pairing up 2x4GB Beast and 2x8GB Savage (for a grand total of 24GB) also works, with Beast in RAM slots 1 & 3, and Savage in RAM slots 2 & 4). XMP-2400 profile works just fine.
