Hi Sifus,
Need your advice. Can I mix the different brand of RAMs? Currently setup using Aegis G-Skill 8GB RAM F4-2400C15S-8GIS . Wanted to buy and mix it with HyperX 8GB RAM 2400Mhz FURY DDR4 Memory Black (HX424C15FB2/8) . Don't know whether it will work or not. Both seems to have latency 15-15-15 at 1.2v. My motherboard is ASUS H110M-K LGA1151 DDR4 MOTHERBOARD. Please advice.

Ram must be same speed , latency But unfortunately my kingston hyperx downgrade both my ram to 2133mhz as in my case i mixed micron ram with kingston initially 2400mhz and both downclocked at 2133mhz. I think the latency is not the same . So better buy same brand for peace of mind This post has been edited by virusje: Oct 10 2018, 09:32 PM

It looks nicer running the same RAM and minimizes any possible issues. This is mine, same models.
