Mixing ram with different CL

Gayanath_Isuru · Nov 22, 2014

I've two DDR3 1866MHz memory sticks. The difference of these rams are the timings. One is CL10 and another one is CL11. My questions is that Can I use these rams together without any problem?

Motherboard - Asus Sabertooth Z77
Processor - intel i5 3rd gen.

You should try.
If they work, it is fine.
If they don't go into the BIOS and set them on the same setting i.e CAS and Frequency.

Just try both. If it boots fine, run a memtest to make sure it'll be working stable under all times. If it doesn't boot, you've to set the timings manually in the BIOS and run the memstest again to make sure you done it right.

Only one ram with me. Another one with my friend. Before I get it, I need to confirm this.

See the following links, it is not guaranteed to work together. So I made the steps in my above answer.
