Mixing ram with different speed is fine.
But mixing ram with different voltage is a different story.

I'm not sure about that.
But it's best if you buy a RAM that's the same voltage as the stock RAM.

The system will just go for the lower speed and timings.

You should be able to set the RAM settings manually to avoid complications.
