Works fine with different types as long as they have the same timings. I have one at home running like that fine in dual channel. As stated some are fussy and one of my early MB I had to slow the memory speed down one notch to avoid memory errors. All the latest ones though run at full speed. Having said that though it is best to use memory that match in pairs and are sold as dual channel as they have been tested to work. |
