Hey guys, I have a question. I've built a few PC's before, but I'm not super knowledgeable about a lot of the more specific things of hardware. I haven't seen any questions about the same exact question I have. Forgive me if this has been asked a million times and I just didn't see it.
I have 2x4gb of Gskill Ripjaws DDR3-1600 8-8-8-24 (I know it's old) and one of the most common bottlenecks for me is maxing out my RAM usage. So I figured I'd get another 8gb (2x4gb), but the problem is that I can't find the same exact ram anywhere anymore. However, I did find this on Newegg
http://
(same thing, but 9-9-9-24). Is there any major issue with running 2 different sets that are the same brand, speed, model and everything but just slightly different timings?
My other option would be to have to spend twice as much and buy 16gb and I guess just toss the 8gb that's already in there which feels like a waste.
AMD FX-8350
Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0
Gskill Ripjaws DDR3-1600 8-8-8-24 2x4GB
Western Digital Black WD20 03FZEX-00Z4SA0 SATA Disk Device (2TB)
EVGA GTX 970 SSC
SeaSonic M12II 620 Bronze 620W ATX12V
An old CoolerMaster I've had for a long time (not sure what model anymore)
Windows 7 Ultimate
