air_jordan Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 I am new to this but any way my problem is that i just bought the value select memory kit pc3200 vs1gbkit400. and i already have ram from A-DATA in my computer which is pc 3200 DDR 400. I have two sticks of 512 so they are dual channel i have an Asus A8V motherbord and i tired simply installing my 2 new sticks from the kit into the extra slots assuming it would work and my computer would pick it up. Which it didn't i browesed the forums a little and tired setting the timings manually whit 2.5-3-3-8 and uping the voltage to 2.8 The only way i can get it to work is either by only having the corsair memory in or only having the A-data memory in. With both in the system only picks up 1024 mb either the corsair or the a-data memory. My question is can i use these 2 together or will i have to pick one brand and have all my memory the same. p.s the a-data memory has a cas 2.5 setting just like the corsair. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 It's not recommended to mix memory of different manufacturers. They may not be compatible as you have found out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 29, 2004 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 29, 2004 Wired, is correct. Please either use all of one makers memory with this platform. Sorry, but this is a limitation of the memory controller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
