Upgrading RAM of my PC

[kousik1987]

My motherboard is ASUS M4A89GTD PRO USB 3 with AMD Phenom II X6 1090T 3.20Ghz.
My RAM is Corsair XMS3 DDR3 4gb 1600Mhz. I want to upgrade the RAM now. I search the market. But cant find the same RAM model. The Stores are suggesting me to buy corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz. Is it OK to have a same speed , but different series RAM in a same PC? Will be there any problem if the CAS Latency speed doesn1t match ? 🙁

It's a crapshoot, any time you mix DRAM, even identical sets it can be and often is problematic. Best is to get a full set of the full amount you want/need. If you have to mix try and match up the CL, timings and voltage. If you do mix and have problems, give me a shout and we can try voltage/timing adjustments

It's not much of a crapshoot make sure the new memory has the same listings as this. 1600MHz, 9-9-9-24, 1.65V

Might look through the forums, full of people mixing DRAM and having problems. DDR3 isn't like DDR and DDR2 where it was relatively easy to mix DRAM, add in an older mobo and the 1090 CPU, maybe 50-50
