I want to know if it's safe to use four different types of ram sticks or should it be the same?


i have a 4gb stick and upgrading to 16gb
 
Solution
Even with same exact model - there's no guarantee ;) The chips used, the PCB used, the solder used today....may not be the same as what they use the next day (different production lots)...Even right off the line, might grab 10 consecutive sticks and only find a single set of 4 that will play nice...
