Hey guys

My MB can handle 8GB of ram (maxiumus board)

Currently has;
Corsair
CM2X2048-6400c4DHX

XMS2-6400 2048 MB 800MHz
X2 (4gb total)

4-4-4-12
2.10volts
V1.2

I want to slot in another 4gb and obviously wanted to find the exact memory match but very hard to do so. Would this work? Or would you advise to wait until I find exact match for the pair I already have?

Corsair
CM2x2048-6400c5DHX

XMS2-6400 2048mb 800mhz

5-5-5-18
1.8v
V4.2

Many thanks for the help, appreciated.

Oh p.s the system is running a QX6850 quad and I intend on over clocking.

I just spent the last hour looking for the same ram and it is very hard to find one of the same model with 2.1v and a latency of 4-4-4-12.
However, They both should be able to run with 1.9V using 5-5-5-18 timings though.
I would take the xms2 ram cards and change the timing in bios and set them for 5-5-5-18 with 1.9v and test them with memtest after a reboot. If that works you should be able to slide in the other ram cards and they should work together.
