Hi all,
Yet another question that you've probably heard before.
I have a 1x4GB Corsair XMS3 stick in my desktop currently, but I wanted to add some more.
I bought some more (2X4GB Corsair XMS3), and the speeds were faster (which I know that is usually OK to mix).
HOWEVER, the new ram runs at the timings of 11-11-11-30, whereas the old runs at 9-9-9-24.
The system I run is a Dell Optiplex 780 (SFF) with the standard mobo.
Now, should I...
A) Mix them, boot into the bios, and change the settings, or
B) Not use the old 9-9-9-24 and use the new ones on its own.
Thanks for ye olde helpe.
