Ram memory confilict?

[Axe22]

Sometimes my pc freeze during the game.They are both DDR 2 800 MHz.
But their latency is different.
One is 5-5-5-18,second 6-6-6-18.
Can this cause the problem?

 

[nickbachu]

yes this can cause a problem because they are banking at different timings

Well its possible yes, but normally it shouldn't be a problem. You wrote: "Sometimes my pc freeze during the game"

Do you play just one Game, does it freeze up only on one Game or on various Games? Have you tried some Benchmark and load tools?

If just one Game is freezing up while others run fine, I wouldn't mind so much, some Games just tend todo this, no matter how flawless your System is built.

If you really believe it's the Ram, just try to run it with 1 of the Rams removed

YES! You should be using the exact type of memory for both sticks always to avoid conflict!

Theres a lot of people running different Rams, usually its no Problem. Though similar ones are recommended to get the Bonus from Dualchannel.

Would you use two different pairs of tires on your car? Not ideal, just like this.

Except using different RAM is even worse.

Can it be changed in bios?
It start in every game.Sometimes I play few hours without problems,sometimes few minutes.In cause problem only in games.I will find second module with same latency,thanks to all
