Corse-R Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I'm planning to upgrade my system to cope with the new workloads I'm facing on the next months. Got an Intel DP67BG motherboard along a i7-2600K CPU and needing 16Gb of RAM. Planning to get 2 sets of the memory of the Re: (CMZ8GX3M2A1600C8) looked on the net for compatibility with 4 modules at the rated speed (1600Mhz). Found nothing saying Ok or not compatible. Did you made any internal testing with 4 modules and the added load for the IMC present on the i7 at such speeds?. Which settings?. Just wanting to assure that I do not incurr on an expensive mess in memory. :biggrin: TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted March 14, 2011 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 14, 2011 We would not suggest mixing sets as that would not be guaranteed, it would be best to purchase a 16 Gig set then trying to mix memory. CMZ16GX3M4A1600C9 or CMZ16GX3M4A1600C9B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corse-R Posted March 14, 2011 Author Share Posted March 14, 2011 Ok. Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately dealers here in Spain told at first time that 16gb 4x4Gb from Corsair weren't available or told me a horrible delivery time (5-6 weeks minimum). That's why I choosed 2 2x4Gb. Been a long time customer from Corsair memory, they served me really well and wanted to stick with you, guys. :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted March 14, 2011 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 14, 2011 I am sorry about that but they are available and what you should use, you are welcome to try and mix two sets, just sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.
