Hi,

You don't have to worry, if it is working fine, it won't cause any problems.

For best results, each Memory Bank (usually 2 slots with Dual-Channel Memory) should contain matching RAM Dimms (of proper speed and specifications for motherboard).

Memory type:

Dual Channel DDR4 2133MHz

Up to 2400 MHz with XMP (optional)

Supports 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB, and 64 GB DIMMS

Remember that the RAM needs to be compatible with Xtreme Performance RAM technology (XMP) and all modules have to be the same for it to run at 2400hz.

Also XMP should be enabled in the BIOS.

so you're saying I can have all four slots of 16gb ram at 2400hz if enable XMP in bios, meaning 64gb at 2400hz
