Two different types of Corsair Memory Installed Together


NavyMan

Recommended Posts

I have one set of TWIN2X2048-6400 and one set of TWIN2X2048-6400C4. My problem is that when I put both sets in my system it will not complete a boot. If I take either set out everything works fine. Can I not use them together or do I need to make some sort change in the bios so they will work together? They are being installed into a ASUS P5SN32-SLI-SE-Deluxe. Thank you for any help you can give.

It's never a good idea to mix and match DRAM in systems. It's always a dice throw and you have different IC's on each set kit.

 

Install 1 set (6400c4). You can try to set the DRAM to 667Mhz and the Vdimm to 2.1v and 5-5-5-15 timings. Set to a command rate of 2T. Shut the system down and insert the second set of sticks. Restart.

 

Results?

Things seem to be running now with the following settings: DRAM to 533Mhz and the Vdimm to 1.95v and 4-4-4-12 timings and command rate of 2T. System will not boot if I try to set the DRAM to 633 or the Vdimm above 1.95v. I will let run like this and see what happens.

You can always memtest this configuration.
