Did I screw up? (ram compatibility)

[MattyB13]

So I bought 16GB of LPX ram to go along with my already installed 16GB and I noticed a slight difference in part number.. CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 vs CMK16GX4M2D3200C16. I looked them both up and the timings are slightly different. One being 16-18-18-36 and the other 16-19-19-36. Is this going to be an issue? I have not installed the new sticks yet and can still return them if I need to.. I'd rather not though. Thanks for any insight.

Even if you get a similar module with the same part number, you may encounter issues since the modules are not from a kit and weren't tested to work together.
The only way you will find out is by trying.
You could change the timings manually, so they both are 16-19-19-36.

Can you recommend a way to test? I used memtest years ago, not sure if thats still the way to go.

You will probably just have to set the timings manually in the BIOS

Yes, you could still use memtest86+.
