See i would but the exact RAM i have is $94 and i want to save some money...( i was an ignorant fool back when i first built my computer)

well you kinda have to get the same kit because its not just the freq, cAS latency and voltage, its subtimings and the ICs on the Sticks which is very hard to find an exact same kit of

So ya see i screwed up, i bought 8GB G.Skill Trident Z 3200 MHz RAM (16 CAS 1.35 Voltage) 2 years ago and now i want to upgrade to 16GB of RAM. However, after searching i cant seem to get a straight answer about RAM with CAS Latency and Voltage so far apart, (i was looking at 8GB Corsair 2133 MHz RAM with 15 CAS and 1.2 Voltage). Everyone says as long as it has the same CAS and voltage, the speed doesnt matter. But no one hasnt said anything about RAM with different CAS and Voltage...so what do i do here?

i would recomend just searching online for the exact model number of your ram kit

and buy another exact same one.
