If they're identical sticks, it'll work.

Even if they're not identical sticks it will probably work.

Are you saying that you are ordering the same thing twice? Then if so, you are perfectly fine.

 

 

If they're identical sticks, it'll work.

yes im saying that im ordering same thing but twice. so that makes it identical I guess, right? :))

I have different RAM timing on my recent system (7 years old rig) and don't have problem but for new rig I want everything to be perfect :)

 

Similar specced RAM will typically work together even if not identical, but buy identical DIMM' s just for the security of knowing they will work.

Walmart sells RAM!? wow.

 

I'd recommend just buying 4x2 kit from newegg or amazon, that ram is overpriced
