Two different types of RAM together?

deusvolt · Mar 1, 2015

Howdy y'all, and may a blessed Sunday morning shine upon thee!

I've got 2x2gb sticks of corsair value ddr3 ram 1333
And 1x2gb stick of samsung ddr3 ram 10666

I had read that basically 10666 and 1333 are the same, so I reckon these should work fine with eachother, but can anyone confirm?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, they will work together, not the best solution, but it does give you 2 gb of extra memory.

It is also possible you may get instability issues but the only way to know is by trying

Have to try and see, mixing DRAM is a crapshoot - might work, might not. You can even buy two packages of the same exact model and no guarantees
