Hi, I'm upgrading my pc backup pc as I've sold my current pc (in my signature), and I currently have 2*4gb's, but I want to add another 8gb's (2*4), however the RAM I currently use, I have not been able to find it in the UK, or anywhere else for that matter. Here's the RAM:

And I want to use the 8gb's Ill be getting for a RAMDisk, so I can put games on it, for super fast loading speeds. However, I want to overclock the RAM, but someone said that AMD CPU's are really iffy about two different RAM sticks, will I have any problems? Also the RAM I'd be using is: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/crucial-memory-ct2kit51264ba1339
 
Solution
All CPUs can be 'iffy' about mixing DRAM, it can be problematic, those are fairly basic sticks so if you want to try, will be happy to help if any problems, may need to add about + 0.05 for DRAM voltage and with AMD add an additional 0.10 to the CPU/NB voltage
