Hello! Thank you for clicking into my post!
Context: I have a Gaming Notebook (Nitro 5 AN515-52-732M). It comes with 8GB 2400MHz CL17. My laptop has a dual RAM slot and I would like to make use of the Dual-Channeling for RAM. Hence, I was considering to upgrade it with another 8GB RAM while making use of the dual-channel.
I found this Kingston HyperX 8GB RAM 2666MHz CL15 HX426S15IB2/8 which also have the same Form Factor of SODIMM as my already-installed RAM. I chose the 2666MHz RAM as there are sales for it which made it cheaper than the same series but 2400MHz RAM. I understand that the frequency for HyperX would be underclocked to 2400MHz and have CL17 instead of CL 15.
Questions: As such, I would like to ask: If I were to buy and install the Kingston HyperX RAM, would it even be compatible with my current RAM? How much would the Dual-Channeling be affected? Or, as a whole, do you’ve other recommendations for other RAM I can purchase that is compatible?
