Upgrade Ram In Custom PC

Chrysalis Gamer · Nov 16, 2016

I want to upgrade my ram from 8Gb to 16 Gb. I have Patriot Viper 3 Ram and was wondering if I could add 8 Gb of the same exact kind of ram with no problems. I also have the mamba black version

You can however your taking a risk. DIMMs are matched at the manufacturing site to ensure compatibility due to minor differences in latency. If you know what you are doing regarding Primary Timings in Bios then you may get them to work together. Best to get a single kit of the size you want and avoid the frustration.

Most likely you will be fine. You can set all of the timings manually anyway. I have run dual sets of 8GB and 16GB many times with no issues.
