[SOLVED] Mixing RAM with different Tested Latency

[RoSoy13]

Hello,

I bought a few years ago this RAM:
https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categ...-Memory-Kit/p/CMZ8GX3M2A1600C8#tab-tech-specs
Now I would like to add another 8GB. I couldn't find the exact same Memory but I found this one:
https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categ...-Memory-Kit/p/CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9#tab-tech-specs
Checking the specs I noticed the only difference is the tested Latency. Everything else is exactly the same.
Should I have any problem mixing those two (getting blue screens etc.)?

Everything works smoothly.
Some maybe unnecessary specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5 3570 @ 3.40GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB
Motherboard: Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd. Z77X-D3H

Thanks

Even mixing the exact same make and model bought separately can have issues. RAM is only guaranteed to work together if bought as a matched kit. See the odd man out section here https://forums.tomshardware.com/faq...y-ram-and-xmp-profile-configurations.3398926/

There is no harm in trying and often it will work.

So if we mix two memories with the exactly same specs we might got problems if they arent bought together?
Thats something new for me .
Thanks for your response, I ll check the post you mention.

If anything, the faster RAM will just match its specs to the slower one. I can't imagine why a faster RAM would not work in a slower configuration.

Well that make sense too.!
