so i just went out and bought another 8 gig DDR3 for my CPU yesterday brought it home installed it in the extra memory slot and it read fine. today i notice a FPS drop+ lag in World of Warcraft and had some issues on start up with my graphic settings on my dual monitor setup. Anyone have any idea whats going on ?
 
Give us a list of your specs, model of motherboard, what operating system, 32 or 64 bit. Specs of each stick of ram.
 
Gigabyte GA-F2A78M-D3H
AMD A10-7850k APU 3.7ghz
Radeon R7 2gig
1 TB WD HD.

I have 3 sticks of ram now for maxium of 16gig
2 4gb PNY
1 8GB PNY
 
You have the same brand but are all 3 sticks the same speed and timings? If you don't know, then give me model numbers of each stick. But to be honest, most people don't need more than 8gb of memory. If you remove the new stick does everything work fine? I so, its seems there is a memory issue either with just the new stick of compatibility between old and new sticks.
 
Make sure you put the 2x4GB on one RAM channel and the 1x8GB on another otherwise you'll have lopsided interleaving.
 
When i take the new stick out everything runs normal again but with the new stick in its running how i explained. and the 2x4GB r on one channel and the 8gig is on the other ive had people suggest buying another 8gb stick and removing the 2x4gb is this true?
 
You can yes. But what I would do is remove the 2x4 and just use the single 8gb stick and see how the computer reacts. If it still laggy I would suspect bad ram.
