Quick Question.

With the holiday season around the corner I was looking into upgrading my ram. I want to buy the same product I bought last time so there are no errors. But the only version they have in stock is the ram running at 3600 mhz when I bought mine at 2666. I know you can change speeds in the bios so I was wondering if having 2 sticks at higher speed would mess with anything. I think I should be able to lower the 3600 set so they are all equal. Lmk in the comments. Thanks again.

Using different ram as long as it's similar enough will generally work although it's not guaranteed. You can run faster ram at lower speeds.
