Voltage differances

i have two sticks of memory one is at 2.1v and the other is 1.9v. is there any way to get them to work together? not sure if it matters but the timing is also differant. the 1.9v says 5-5-5-12 on it and the 2.1v says 4-4-4-12. i tried setting the timings manually but they still did not work together so i think it must be the voltage. i havnt tried setting the voltages manually yet because i dont want to damage the memory. im not sure if i should set the voltage to 1.9 or 2.1 or somewhere in between.


additional info:
i tested the sticks individualy and both work just fine, but i want them to work together.
im a new at this so if u know anything about memory voltages PLEASE POST!!!!

What manufacturer and brand label memory modules do you have?

The only way I can think of for your memory to work together is to use very loose timings. Like 5-5-5-18 2T and a medium voltage of 2.0v. You may even want to start at 6-6-6-18 2T first.

Can you download CPU-z and find out what JEDEC standard each uses? Go to the SPD tab of CPU-z.
