Are they compatible?

Recommended Posts

I just bought a set of CM2XP1024-6400C4 and a set of CM2X1024-6400C4PRO.

 

I install the XP module (2) on yellow slot and pro module on black (2).

When these module are install together, i have errors message with MEMTEST-86 v3.2.

 

When install individually..... the 2 XP module will work on both slot and same for PRO.

 

These two modules are different, one with module led display and other with LED only, but have the same latency..4-4-4-12.

 

Question....

Are they compatible together?

Do i have to do something in the BIOS ?

Info: motherboard .....P5N32-SLI PREMIUM

 

Thanks for your help

The MB you have I would suggest 667 MHz memory and with 4 modules you may have to run the memory 533 Mhz because of loading on the memory controller! And I would never suggest mixing memory with any system for best performance!

Hey Ram Guy...

There an update on this case....

 

With the info i received from you, configure my memory bios to eighter 667 or 533 with wattage of 2.1.....

 

it does not work with 4 Go.

 

Works fine with 2 Go.

 

Thats weird. Why work with 2 Go and not 4Go.

Thanks for your help.

If you want to over clock 2 modules max is best, and if you are using WinXP32 Bit version it will not see all 4.0 Gig of memory. But if you use 64Bit version of Windows then 4 Gig might be the best choice even its running at a slower speed.
