Hi, I have a Dell G5 5500 which i bought new from Dell, I have had it for about a year, but only just realised it has 2 different makes of RAM in it.
This only come about because i thought i would see what crucial show me as my upgrade options if i wanted and from their scan showed:
Slot 1: Hynix 8GB DDR4 PC4-25600 3200MHz
Slot 2: Micron 1x 8GB DDR4-3200
I do find that a little odd that Dell have done that, but does it make any difference or is it always good practice to use 2 of the same?
I was only running the scan to see if there was any faster Ram, mine both show as CL 22, crucial do show having a Ballistix model that are CL16, does anyone think this would make much difference for day to day use, or not really worth it?
Regards
James
