So, I got 3x4gb Corsair Vengaence PC12800 ( CMZ12GX3M3A1600C9 )
I didn't realise they were made for triple channel at the time -.-
If I buy one more 4gb Corsair Vengaence PC12800, but ( CMZ4GX3M1A1600C9 )
will they still work well together as If I just bought 4?
Thank for the help !!!

They "should" all work fine, the only issue is anytime you mix kits it is not guaranteed to work. usually with a few bios tweaks this can be ironed out, but there is no guarantee. So the simple answer is yes it should be fine, but no way to know for sure until you try it.

Thanks for the help guys, and IF it works, would they still work less effectively than if I use 2x dual channels ? or if they work, then they will work the way they should? thanks again.
