One of my 4gb GAIL sticks is having lots of errors and causing the machine to go BSOD on me.. I would like to replace it with 1 or 2x4gb sticks..

How important is it to get the same timings on the new sticks?

The one I have now is 12800, 9-9-9-28..

There are lots of 9-9-9-24 sticks out there, can I buy them and have them live nicely next to the remaining Gail stick?

Edit: Also, the current ones are 1.6v.. do the new sticks need to be the same voltage?
