Mixing RAM with Different CAS Latency

[ajm1996]

I recently won 2x4gb of Crucial Ballistix BLS2KIT4G3D1609DS1S00 ram (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006WAGGUK/) and currently have 2x4gb of Super Talent W1600UB4GM (http://www.aztekcomputers.com/W1600UB4GM-SUPER-TALENT-3833837.html).

All specs seem to be the same except for my current ram having CL9 and my arriving ram has CL11. Also I cannot seem to find the timing of my current ram. Will these be compatible and will it hurt my performance greatly? Also is there any way I can find my RAM timing if I can't find it online?

Get the free CPU-Z software and use it on your system. Check the memory tab. http://www.cpuid.com/

It will be compatible and the memory will probably default to the slowest. It won't make very much difference in any case.

Put it in your PC and give it a try.
Do a simple bench mark before and after.
