Posted October 14, 2018 I currently have dual channel DDR3 8GB (4GBx2) Adata gaming series RAM kit in my pc and want to upgrade to 16GB. The kit has been discontinued as my pc is nearing 7 years old now, can I just pick up another dual channel kit with the same speed/CL settings from another brand and just throw it in there with it? Or do I have to buy all new RAM? Here's the specs for the kit I currently have. Cheers, Mat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 14, 2018 Any DDR3 RAM compatible with your motherboard/CPU will be fine. If possible get RAM with the same frequency and timings. If you have RAM with different frequencies/timings, the faster RAM will match itself to the slower RAM, but it will all still work.
