[khaledegy200]

Hi Guys, i have a 4gb ram in my system and want to add another one.

i have a memory from a brand called nano (bought it because it was $20 cheaper)
now i want to add a g.skill or kingston ram ,will it work together?

Generally it's never a good idea to mix DRAM, it can be problematic.. If you plan to it's best to only try with DRAM specced to 1600 or lower, those sticks can often easily be adjusted to play with each other through voltage adjustments or minor timing adjustments

Sorry ,i forgot to mention that my current ram is 1333mhz so will it work with 1600mhz or there will be some balancing?

thanks for passing.

If going to try, best get 1333 w/same timings as current DRAM
