truelove Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I currently have 2 X Corsair VS512MB400 DIMMs (CAS = 2.5) in my system for a total of 1 gig of RAM. Great memory by the way. Anyway, I would love to upgrade to 2 gigs but I only have one slot left and I would like to stick with Corsair Value Select memory if I could. The problem is that Corsair doesn't make a Value Select 1 gig stick with CAS = 2.5. My question is, can I mix 2 memory modules with CAS = 2.5 with another module with CAS = 3. My motherboard's manual says to always install memory modules with the same latency. Is this true, or would it not hurt anything if I mismatched the latency values?

truelove Posted January 4, 2006 Author Share Posted January 4, 2006 please, does noone know the answer to this? Can I mix DIMMs with different CAS Latencys on one motherboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted January 4, 2006 Corsair Employee Share Posted January 4, 2006 I would not suggest mixing memory with any MB's now, it would be best to replace the modues you have now with VS2GBKit400C3 for best performance.

Wired Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 please, does noone know the answer to this? Can I mix DIMMs with different CAS Latencys on one motherboard? FYI, bumping within 24 hours is against the rules. Also, it's pointless when Corsair's ASLEEP at the time of both posts :) Not gonna wake them up!
