Hello

I bought the Corsair 3x2gb 2000mhz triple channel RAM ( CMX6GX3M3A2000C9 ) some years ago and I now what to double up.... BUT for the life of me I cant find any. The closest of its type for sale is 1600mhz but I don't think I'm doing myself any favors by down sizing the speed. I have 3 slots to fill and I don't know what to get that will work with the ram I have... any Ideas?

The whole triple channel ram thing didn't last and Intel switched focus so its going to be hard to find. As for any difference between 2000 and 1666, you wouldn't notice any. In a memory only benchmark the 2000 will do better but in real world, nope.

The bigger issue will be if they work together at all. Mixing ram is crap shoot if it actually works or not.

Thanks getochkn for your reply

What I was lead to believe the higher speed ram would work but at the slowest slotted ram, As long as the latency was the same.
My true issue is money, Id just buy a bigger set id I had it and I don't like the idea of chucking what I have if its in good condition.
