I just got some new Corsair Dominator DDR3 2x8 GIG kit, however it won't work with my GSkill 2x4 GIG kit. The Hertz are the same but the timing is diffrent. Can I reprogram the timing or something like that? Or if they are in seperate channels will they work regardless? Thanks!

They work seperately but not together!

Acronym you need to know.

QVL (Qualified Vendor List)

It is what it says. It's a list of qualified vendors and every MOBO maker out there should have one. Go find yours and pick the RAM that best suits yours.
