Hi all, I bought some extra RAM for my computer and I was a bit concerned about the specifications. From my motherboard specs, it states that the ASRock 990FX Killer supports "Dual Channel" memory. However, the packaging that my RAM stick came in states the channel type is "Single Channel." I'm no expert at RAM, and I'm a bit afraid I might fry my motherboard. I don't know the exact model # of the RAM stick, but it's just generic PNY ram.
Along with that, I should also mention that the voltage is 1.5 volts, has a CAS latency of 11, and does not support XMP. I'm not sure if my current stick of RAM has the exact specs as this new one does, but they both are 1600Mhz, DDR3 and are 8GB sticks. So will this additional stick of RAM work in my computer? If so, will there be any hardware compromises (speed change, latency change, etc.)? Thanks.
