Hello

Just a quick question to clear my mind about this, I have 4GB DDR3 XMS3 1600 RAM currently, A friend is going to sell me some Crucial Ballistix Tracer DDR3 pretty cheap, i was going to add them alongside my XMS3's, my motherboard is dual channel so i will be filling the last 2 slots up.

The timings for the tracers are: CL8 8-8-8-24
The timings for my XMS3 are: 9-9-9-24

Will i need to alter the timings on the tracers in the BIOS for them to run together? for me to achieve 8GB in total

Regards
 
Thanks lads, so they will definitely run together then, I'm only buying the tracers for the pretty blue chasing lights :D plus another 4gb would be nice.
