Will these two RAMs with 1600mhz with 1866mhz frequency work?

Hi dear friends. I'm new here. I have already purchased an used ddr3 8gb Kingston hyper x fury DDR3 CL10 DIMM - Blue (HX316C10F/8) RAM with 1600mhz(auto OC to 1866mhz). Recently, I have given my word to someone to buy his Kingston hyper x fury 8GB Module - DDR3 1866MHz CL10 DIMM RAM (with stock 1866mhz frequency, HX318C10FR/8 ).My MOBO is FM2+ and CPU is AMD A10 7850K. Can I use both RAMS together? Will I face performance issues? How can I make this work? Please help me out.

As far as i know after you mount a new stick then your RAM frequency should go down to 1600Mhz(Highest possible for those two without OC), beacuse its a new setting your OC options may not be remembered - if that happens simply overclock it again to 1866Mhz.

Even though its not recommended to use different memory sticks they will work together.
When it comes to different frequencies it would get automaticly lowered to your first RAM value (1600)(If it wasnt overclocked).
But since it is then your two sticks should work together at 1866Mhz

Thanks Dos eq for the invaluable answer. Will the RAMs will work at 1866c when the first one(with stock 1600mhz) auto OC to 1866mhz?! Or will I have to manually go to BIOS to OC the first RAM to 1866mhz?! Thanks again!
 


There's a word "should". ~80% times they work, sometimes they just don't. If you buy, make sure you can replace it with another stick/return it, so you have a plan if things go south.
 


bios will stop at highest supported by both sticks so it SHOULD be 1866. Still results might be different between mobos. Expect 1866, and as always, have a plan B
