2 different types of ram?

[iPickle94]

Probably a rhetorical question but can i use, for example, 2× ddr4 2666 4gb stick with 2× ddr4 3200 8gb sticks. Im currently using the 2 8gb sticks but was wondering if i can throw in my 2 4gb sticks for added memory. 4gb sticks are digital storm brand and the 8gb are gskill ripjaws.

2x4 + 2x8?

Should work. Though at lower rated sticks speed. If there is no ram shortage 2X8 higher speed would be better

Yes, you can combine them, but they'll all run at the lower frequency and the higher timings all sticks support... 2666 Mhz.

Oh wow perfect, thank you!

Now is there any configuration i might have to do that you may know of?

So far it does seem to be working though.

Probably your RAM settings are set to "auto" so everything should be fine.

Check what speed it's running at.  Best case it will likely drop to 2666 as mentioned already.  It's possible it might even go to a base speed like 2133.  Regardless, you may be able to push the slower sticks up to match the faster ones using normal overclocking methods.
