RAM Question

Go to solution Solved by antoainb,

Technically yes, it would all run at the slowest DIMM's frequency. However, if stability is really critical it's not an optimal setup, but for regular use it's probably fine.

Your RAM would all run at 2666 MHz

i7 4790k | MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition | G.Skill Ripjaws X 16 GB | Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB | 2x Seagate Barracuda 2TB | MSI GTX 970 Twin Frozr V | Fractal Design R4 | EVGA 650W

A gaming PC for your budget: $800 - $1000 - $1500 - $1800 - $2600 - $9001

I mean, unless it's for a server application or something like that, it would probably run without any hiccups. I have a system with 3 different model DIMM's and it runs just fine and has done so for 3 years or so.

i'm a potato
