Memory compatibility

[IAmAndre]

Hi,

 

I'm about to buy some extra RAM sticks and I would like to make sure the new ones are compatible with the ones I have currently. If it can help, I'm using them on an MSI Tomahawk B450, which I might upgrade next year, so DDR5 might enter into consideration. I'm going to buy two of these sticks.

 

Thanks

Which CPU do you use?

I would suggest checking out the QVL here:

As rule of thumb you may be fine, especially if both RAM types use the same type of chip (ie Samsung B-die).

A 2600X. The full specs are on my profile.

So I have the same question for this model: https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct16g4dfra32a

 

I want to combine it with the Corsair sticks.
