Hi,
I recently purchased these 2 sticks - https://www.gskill.com/en/product/f3-1600c9d-16gsr
Was wondering if it is worthwhile combining them with my old sticks - https://www.gskill.com/en/product/f3-12800cl8d-8gbxm
Have them all installed now and it seems to be running fine. Haven't done any stability testing or anything like that, though.
Will the old 2x4gb sticks slow down my new 2x8gb sticks? BIOS says theyre both running at 1600 now, but I'm not sure on the timings - I've found the options in my BIOS, but for some reason it displays different timings for both sticks which I didn't think was possible. My mobo is an Asrock extreme 4 990fx. I use my PC for music production and occasional gaming.
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
