Hello.
I know this is a debated topic, but can you mix different branded RAMs?
Long story short: the reason I need to mix is that those sticks that I already own, are not for sale anymore.
And, I do a lot of editing, gaming (Cities: Skylines for example, RAM-consuming game haha) and other stuff which means my RAM is almost always maxed out, I need 16 GB (I have 8 GB now).
BUT... I think I've found some sticks that are fairly cheap (for my wallet) and have similar specs.
I do not know that much about RAM and some help would've been appreciated!
Not really wanting to throw away those that I own though and buy a completely new set, because it isn't worth it (the computer is not that good...).
Enough talking, these are the ones that I have now and those that I've found that I think would work...
I OWN:
Ballistix Sport LT Red DDR4 2666 MHz (2x4 GB)
Link to specs: Google Drive
Link to site where I bought them (Swedish): NetOnNet.se
TO BUY?:
HyperX 8GB (2x4 GB) DDR4 2666 MHz CL16 Fury
Link to specs: Google Drive
Link to site where I would buy them (Swedish): Inet.se or Proshop.se
Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2666 MHz 8 GB
Link to specs: Google Drive
Link to site where I would buy them (Swedish): Komplett.se
I cannot decide whether these will work together, I do not have that knowledge.
But they do have the same voltage, frequency and timing, so that's good, I guess?
Thank you for any opinions/answers in advance!
