So I was just changing RAM and was replacing my old with the new corsair vengance. My old was a ocz gold ddr3 1333 and the vengance is rated at 1600. I forgot to take out 2 dimms of the ocz so its given me 12gb in total. I was in a rush and booted the computer, it worked fine and the bios and windows recognies the new ram. Everything seems fine but can someone check the timings for me, they look fine for the vengance but not too sure about the ocz.

Its rated at 9-9-9-24-34-2T which is the exact same as corsair but the ocz should be 9-9-9-20-33-2T Its not much but will it affect? the voltage is rated at 1.59v which should be fine for both as there both 1.5-1.65v

If these are ok should i keep more ram or have one at faster speeds?
 
If you are actually using all 12 GB's in the apps you run on your computer - keep it,

Also, it should be noted that RAM speeds do not affect real world performance in a hugely significant way.
