I have 4x2 RAM and when i switch to 1866mhz in bios only one stick works, i bought the memory sticks at different times, do i have to buy new set of RAM ?
 
Solution
All DIMMs have to operate at the same speed and timings. With some luck, you should be able to get both DIMMs to run at the slower speed and effective timings of the two.
Hello...There is more settings in the BIO's, you can change, too help 1866 compatibility... But in real world performance running 8GB@1600 @1T will be OK too...
1) Try first setting your MB performance to "Standard" 'save & exit" and then try the 1866 setting again.
