| 1480536 | 2021-09-15 00:01:00 | Do we have to buy RAM specified in the Memory support List (with the exact Part No) from the MB Manufacturer? Or, just match the Type like DDR4, RAM Speed, will work? |

Maybe if I was gaming more or crypto mining I might.... |

| 1480541 | 2021-09-15 22:06:00 | Yes, and no. It depends . Some brands (HP PC's) can sometimes be very fussy with RAM. You may also need to match RAM speed to the CPU's recommended RAM speed/timing recommended list |

| 1480542 | 2021-09-19 01:14:00 | Most generic boards will work with any RAM so long as it's the right type, speed etc. The qualified module list just shows ones that are tested and guaranteed to work. I've never done that and its been fine. Even with some ultra ultra cheap no-name RAM from eBay. You are more likely to get problems putting mixed speeds/timings of RAM in than simply going off-list. |
