Can i have 2 RAM modules that have different RAM frequencies?
I currently have 1 ram module and it's DRAM is 133mhz.
For example, i use 2 ram modules; the first on is 133mhz and the other is 400mhz.
What would happen if i use both?
Would it cause errors?
I'm just curious. |
1. No
2. Probably won't get past boot screen.
3. Yes. |
LMAO wow kid please just leave computer talk forever.
Yes you can have different mhz rated RAM as long as they are the same generation (ddr1/2/3 and so forth), if you use a stick at 133mhz and one at 400 mhz they all downlock to the lowest speed (133mhz)
Example 1
Slot 1: 1gb @ 133mhz
Slot 2: 512MB at 200MHZ
Slot 3: 1gb at 400mhz
It would all operate at 133mhz, so you are fine to use both.
No it will not cause errors unless one of the sticks have a general issues, to test this look up memtest86+.
So Q1, yes you can use both and Q2 no it will not cause errors unless there is a physical issues with the ram stick.
