I have just installed 4 gig of Kingston KHX8500AD2K2/4G into my system that already had 2 gigs of Crucial 8500, so all in all I now have 6 gigs of RAM. I have just taken a snapshot from Everest and it looks like the new Kingston is not running at the same speed as the Crucial. How do I improve these speeds so that they run the same?
