Some more RAM would be a good idea, but your system is starting to get old anyway, so I can't see much point in investing in more than an extra 8gb. Your system will use DDR3 RAM, which is now deprecated (current generation systems now use DDR4). That said, be sure to open up your case before you go shopping to make sure you actually have some empty RAM slots to put it in - your board may support up to 32gb, but that doesn't help you if all the slots are already in use!
I have 4x2gb in there at the moment.....I was going to scrap them and just get a straight 16gb from ebay [$120]. Sounds reasonable?
Could I also keep 3 of the 2gb ones in the other slots to give me 22gb?
