I recently upgraded my PC and completely overlooked the RAM situation with current prices being what they are. I ended up getting a single 16GB stick, intending to get another one later to total 32GB. However, after building the PC, I tried playing Arc Raiders and experienced terrible lag and frequent freezes. I'm wondering if this could be due to an issue with my new build or if the RAM choice itself is causing this problem.

It's also worth checking if you've installed the latest graphics drivers for your card. Those could make a significant difference in performance, especially if you're using an RTX 4060.
Well, if you're using DDR5, a single RAM stick might still run in dual-channel mode, but you should definitely check your RAM utilization during those lags. That could give you some insight into what's happening.
