So I bought a pair of 8gb G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series (F3-12800CL10D-16GBXL) for my build and when I ended up buying my build I got a free 8gb Crucial Ballistix Sport (BLS8G3D1609ES2LX0) and I wanted to know if i can use all three with my motherboard or just the G Skill. Sorry if I posted in the wrong forum. Thanks for any help.

I'm with Blackbird on mixing DRAM but this looks like it would probably play, trying won't hurt anything, so try installing the RJ Xs in slots 1-3 from CPU, the Crucial in Slot 2, set the sticks manually to 1600, and the base timings to the GSkill specs - your set runs at 10-10-10-30, CR at 2T, DRAM voltage at 1.5...give it a try, if problems, we'll prob have to raise the tRFC in the advanced timings some
