different ram size sticks

[Hom3r]

Hey guys, i've got a little question.

 

I've got 4x2 gb sticks, for my i7 4930k, and startet getting problems, where i use all my ram, and therefore needing more.

my cpu cooler sets a limit for the max ram height, which my current ram dimms exceed, and other similar dimms is almost the same price as a 4x4 gb kit,

 

i was wondering if it was posible to fill one of the sets with 2 gb sticks, and the other set with 4 gb sticks.

 

 

Hope you understand.

Well as long as all other specs are the same (timings etc), hypothetically it should work. If you can find the same make and model of RAM you already have the chances of success are highest. Google can provide you with more information.

Perfectly fine, an old PC I've got lying around has a set of 1GB sticks and a set of 512MB sticks and it worked fine.

Obviously there's the usual timings and whatnot but it's fine to mix sizes.
