I am having to RMA one of my sticks of ram that I purchased back in March. They came in an 8GB kit (2x4GB) and are the RipJaws X DDR3-1333.
Anyways, I called G.Skill and asked if there is anyway I can do a cross ship because I cannot be with my computer for the three weeks that it will take to complete the shipping back and forth. I am taking online computer courses and have no other way to take the courses as I do not have another computer in my home.
The gentleman told me to just send the faulty one back. When I questioned him on them having to be matched, he said that it will work and not to worry.
Last I knew, when you get a set of two ram sticks together in a package, they are matched. I have done research that points to that as well. So I am under the assumption that they must be matched to work correctly, or at least be compatible.
Is the guy I spoke with correct?
