So I was on Newegg about to buy another 4GB RAM stick to total 12GB, when I saw this 8GB set on sale for only $55 when the one 4GB RAM stick I want is $48. I'll link the two below :

The 4GB stick I was going to buy that I already have 8GB of in my system :

The 8GB set on sale that is NOT the same as the ones in my system :

Is the 8GB set going to cause problems or is it okay if I mix the two sets? Or would I be better off just getting the 4GB stick?
 
Solution
Same - same - still mixing packages. CAn try either way or get a single set of the full amount you want (best bet), but if mixing is needed, try and if problems give me a shout, I often have good luck adjusting voltages and/or timings to get them to play, no guarantees but have helped a ton of folks in these areas
