MaxVII possible ram ugrade?

I've been using a set of TridentX (2 x 8GB) 2400 and I'm considering a set of Ripjaws X (4 x 8GB) 2133. I'd like to drop to 1.5v while maxing ram capacity. What you folks think?

Sorry, should have put Max VII "Hero" in the title.

I have a kit 32GB Corsair Dominator Platinum 1600MHz , and setting the XMP profile optimizes and automatically sets the RAM you including voltages and frequencies , in any case wait the answer of someone more experienced

P.S I have the same CPU and the same motherboard

Hello Heini

What do I think?

I'd keep what you have, 1.65v is perfectly safe for your board and cpu. 2400MHz is faster than 2133MHz and two sticks puts less strain on your cpu's IMC.

32GB is overkill unless you are doing heavy video or CAD editing/rendering work.
