Hyperx blu vs Hyperx fury

[Maarij K]

Which one is better for gaming? Will they work together? I have both but I am not sure if they are compatible with each other.

They will not work together I don't think, the general rule is that you don't mix different RAM up in the system to avoid collision between the 2 RAM, they will have instabilities, do you know what speed and latency they are?

 

[Maarij K]

They are both 1600 MHz.

and do you know what latency they are? what's the number after 'cl'

 

[Maarij K]

Hyperx fury is cl9 and Hyperx blu is cl10.

i think they'll work, they're quite close so they should play nicely, they might not but if they don't just go into BIOS tpo change the settings so they are all the same

What mobo and CPU - they may have problems - the HyperX Blue (like almost all DRAM utilizes XMP for setup (i.e. enable XMP select profile 1) but the Fury sticks don't utilize XMP they are dependent on PnP and only certain chipsets that are compatible, so if compatible, they may look to set themselves up via PnP and the config may not be compatible to your Blu - since you have both, give them a try and see what happens (it's not going to blow up or fry anything, if they won't play it just won't start, if they will play it will start at the mobo default (normally 1066 or 1333) then you'll prob have to set up manually
