Hello everyone!
Basically I had a few questions about different RAM sticks.
1. Can I use 2 different RAM sticks with different amount of Mhz?
Example: 1 RAM stick at 1333Mhz + 1 RAM stick at 1600Mhz
2. Can I use 2 different RAM sticks with different Volts?
Example: 1 RAM stick at 1.5Volts + 1 RAM stick at 1.65Volts
3. Does it matter if one stick is buffered and the other one is something else?
4. One main thing I already know is that the RAM has to be the same "timing".
I mean "timing" in this way: 9-9-9-27 or 10-10-10-30.
Is "timing" the right reference?
My motherboard accepts DDR3, so my question is if I change RAM sticks do I have to keep the same "timing"? (right now I've gotten 2x4Gb, 1600Mhz, DIMM 240-pin, 9-9-9-27)
Or can I put in two RAM sticks with 10-10-10-30 sticks instead?
And is 10-10-10-30 better than 9-9-9-27?
Here is the link to the specs of my RAM sticks I have at the moment.

Am I being way too paranoid?
Thanks for reading and thanks for your answers, I hope it was understandable.
Best regards,
Steven
