teeejay Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Hello, just a quick question. I currently own Asus Maximus V Formula motherboard and I am going to buy this nice RAM kit, because I want all the ram slots full. But I could not find any 4x4 GB DDR3 1866Mhz kit in our country. So I am asking, is it possible to get to work these two kits together? - 2x Corsair 8GB KIT DDR3 1866MHz CL9 Dominator Platinum? Thank you very much. :o: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbonerfs101e Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 If you buy a 1600MHz Kit ove 4 memory sticks it wil be compatible and stable. You have to buy only one kit ove 4 sticks and not 2 kits ove 2 sticks But if you OC CPU at 4.5 Then 1886MHz set at 1600MHz will be mutch more stable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutz94 Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 just a quick question.

There is just no way to tell if any two random kits would work with each other ...even if they are the same exact part numbers. If the 4x4 kit is not available to you in your country i would suggest ordering them from the Corsair store. They will ship worldwide. But trying to mix two unmatched kits can be hit or miss , so no one can really answer your question. All you can do is try and hope for the best. Originally posted by Turbonerfs But if you OC CPU at 4.5 Then 1886MHz set at 1600MHz will be mutch more stable There is no way you can back that up . It may be perfectly stable at 1866mhz. All the OP can do is try it and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
