hello! In my current build im running 4GB Corsair vengeance LP 1600MHz 1.5v. Bought the 8GB Vengeance white with the same timings (9-9-9-24) but at 1.35v. would i be able to run these four sticks together? thanks

It's not really recommended and you will run into problems by doing so and if you try to increase the voltages for the 8GB Vengeance sticks you might shorten the life span of them if it's not supposed to be run at higher than 1.35v. So no.

damn, so just run the 8gb sticks alone?

I would try it first and see if it works. If it doesn't work, I would only use the 8gb kit.
