Will it operate with two dual channel kits?

[Zkay]

My motherboard is a dual channel mobo. It has four DDR3 slots, two blues, two blacks.
I currently have a GSkill Sniper 2x4GB kit on the blue slots. Would my pc operate if I get another GSkill Sniper 2x4GB kit and use them on the black slots?

That's pretty much my question. Thank you!

Yes. Even if you get different speed of memory, so long as you set it in bios to operate at the slowest of the two speeds (not just MHz, but also timings) then you'll be okay.

You can use different channel kits like quad with a dual channel mobo but I believe it will slow down performance, but yea I believe you can

Dual channel kits do not mean they are designed for dual channel. Their just saying that those two ram sticks have been specifically verified to work together in dual channel. Two dual channel kits running quad channel are the same as a quad channel kit, assuming that the two dual channel kits work together. That dual channel tag is just showing that the manufacturer says those two sticks will work together as specified without question.

My kit is a 1600MHz kit, and I wanna get the same one, so I don't have to set that in the bios, right? I mean, if both of the kits are at the same frecuency?

So long as the rest of the timings are the same, you're fine and won't have to change anything.

Would be fine. This is what you are supposed to do. As long at both have the same timings and frequency, you are going to have no problem. Having two different kits whether it is different timings or frequencies is a big no-no though

Thank you guys!!
