ask ram problem please help all, sory for bad typing, i use google translete

 

my pc ram 4gbx1 ddr3 pc12800 timings 9-9-9-24, i check through cpuz
I want to add 8gbX1, so it's 12gb. the problem is, it's hard to find ram with the same spec in my place

 

if I buy with the same speed, but different timing? is it going to error ??
Can we set the ram timing to be the same? if possible, how?

 

my pc spec is Dell Vostro 260, i5-2400, the mobo is Dell H61. yes i know i5 2400 only support max pc10600 ram, I used to buy a used one

I've read, if our RAM sped is over from what the CPU can read, then automatically our mobo will set the RAM to the appropriate sped.
Is the default Dell suport ??

 

that's all my question. I have been looking for ram with the same spec for 2 months and I haven't found it 😭😭

You can run different timings, yes. The motherboard will make them all run at the same speeds (whatever is the slower of the two, that how they will all run). As long as its DDR3, and the speed is the same, it should work :)

The timings don't matter, as long as it's the same DDR revision and rated speed than you shouldn't run into any problems, as long as you set it to the correct speed in BIOS.

thanks for help bro

final ask, my mobo support auto set sped and timing or not sir?

if canot, how to set sped and timing, and what timing for my pc??

when setting the timing whether the ram turns in pairs, or directly plug the ram into 2 directly? ( sory bad typing google translete )

The mobo *should* do it all automatically. I have never had to manually adjust things to get RAM that didn't match to work.
