adding more memory....

Matt18 · Jan 17, 2008

I just installed vista ultimate 64, so I want to add 2 more gigs of ram.
My question is, am I better off buying the same memory I have right now so it all matches?

It has been really stable so far, I left the timings and voltage at default, it OC'd to 900mhz w/ out any problems.

I guess I just want to know if there is anything better for the price....

G-Skill is good stuff, if it matches your other ram I'd say def go with it. Not a bad price either.

Its better to have the same ram.. that way you know what the sticks can oc at, and they work together.. you get one kit that oc's good at 900 but if you get another type, and it can only be stable at 850 then you have a problem.. One kit holding you back..
The G. Skill is a great set of ram. And you'll enjoy it.

ya they have faster ram that has timming of 4-4-4-12 so if you wanted something faster, and i think you should, you could get this and sell the 5-5-5-15 set you have now.
