I have a question reference some RAM i have just purchased, but first some History.
About 4.5 years ago i purchased 1 Gig matched pair of:
TwinX1024-3200C2PRO
CMX512-3200C2PRO XMS3200 400MHZ CL2 XMS3202V1.0.
Lot code:0347153
In an effort to increase my comps RAM i have purchased some more memory of the same kind (well nearly). It seems that the memory i have purchased is exactly the same except for the version number, the new memory is:
TwinX1024-3200C2PRO
CMX512-3200C2PRO XMS3200 400MHZ CL2 XMS3202V5.3.
Lot code:0630223-1
My question is are these compatable with each other, i would have thought so as from the items technical desription they are both the same and retailers never specify versions, but according to Corsair they can't guarentee that will work together and say:
Officially we would not suggest or support mixing memory ......
Has anyone else heard of this problem? What is the difference in the versions and why might they not work together?
BTW. I have not tried the new RAM yet as i am waiting on a new monitor but will give it a try as soon as i can.
Any help appreciated.
