Hello everyone,

I have a PC with Asus P5N32-E Sli mobo and OCZ Titanium PC2-6400 800Mhz 2GB( 2x1gb) with timings 4-4-4-15 1T 2.2V memory.

I have purchased a new memory kit which is G.SKILL PK Series DDR2 800MHz (PC2-6400) 4GB (2x2GB) Dual Channel Kit 4-4-4-12 2.0-2.1 V. cant tell if it is rated for 1T or 2T.

Are these two memories compatible, and if so what settings should I use in BIOS to make them stable.

Right now I am running with both of them in it, but it crashes if I run a game or anything that requires a lot of memory.

Any suggestions or comments are much appreciated

Thanks
 
Start with 4-4-4-15 2T and 2.2V (you don't have much of a choice since the OCZ needs that much voltage). If you want to use a lower voltage (less risky for the G.Skill), then try 5-5-5-15 2T and 2.0V. Run memtest86 for several hours (overnight is best) to make sure that there are no memory errors. If there are errors, then either increase voltage a bit or loosen the timings.
