Upgrading memory compatibility

[SirSawo]

Hey guys

i was wondering.. atm i have 4 Gb ddr3 Corsair Value select 1333Mhz PC3-10666
i saw not too expensive corsair memory. its Corsair valueselect 1333Mhz but PC3-10600
so i would add 2 or 4 gb to my current 4Gb..
can i combine these two or will i have compatibility issues? pc3-10666 with pc3-10600

thx in advance for your kind replies

Probably not, but you'll just have to try it. Crucial guarantees it's ram to work if you use their configurator software. I've mixed mac pro ram with regular desktop; one was ecc and the other was non-ecc. You won't be able to mix any registered with non registered ram; Registered ram is strictly for server boards, except for a few newer Intel desktop boards with certain i5 and i7 cpus, which may run it with the error correction function disabled.

Both ram kits have the same timings and both ddr3 1333; same manufacterer the only diffrence is the PC3-10600 / PC3-10666 :/
