majkmil Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Hello, I have a TWINX XMS3200LL 2x256 set of modules. I am trying to use them with a 2x256 dual channel Kingston value ram set for a 1GB system, at default speed. My system is a Media center PC. I am freezing all the time. I usally run my XMS at 2.7V and its fine, but when I put in the kingston it acts up. I have tried 2.6V for the for the kingston and relaxed the timings but I cant seem to get them to play nice. BTW the kingston also runs fine by it self also. If anyone (Ram Guy) knows what I might try please help. Thank You Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandyKid Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 It's probably a mixture of two things... 1) Your four modules don't match. It's like trying to run a diesel engine with a regular fuel pump, the two aren't compatible with each other, even though they're both engine parts. Your system has a hard time dealing with modules that don't run exactly alike. 2) Four modules is hard on any system and can cause errors. The best way to deal with this is a higher VDimm Voltage setting (2.75+) and slower latencies, I.E. CAS 3-4-4- PLUR CK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted April 21, 2005 Corsair Employee Share Posted April 21, 2005 I would not suggest mixing memory with any system, you would need all of the modules to matched with most MB's today. Sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
