AvatarofDOOM Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 You can't mix brands or speeds. i learned my lesson i had to order new ram. your just going to have to pick the faster of the two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(done with da sig. ) i tryed mixing them on dual channel ,but the board just beeps. two sticks at a time it works (same brand). i thought i would have no problems ,cause they are all BH-5 ...but i guess there is nothing i can do ...right?

RGone Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 you might be able to use Thiaphoon to change the SPD on one set of sticks to match the other set and it might work then. Google is your bud for finding such stuff. RGone... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid1 Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 While I can usually run 4 sticks just fine, and even mix them, the one combination that didn't work as I expected was mixing 2x Kingston BH-5 with some other BH-5 (I think Mushkin). So I'd call it lost cause. I tried all the usual debugging like hardcoded RAM settings prior to insertion etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipp0r Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 woohoo, excellent news, i flashed my kingston with the spd's from my twinmoss and now all 4 sticks are detected :D x-seed i suggest you do the same, it works a treat. i flashed the kingston because they had serial numbers where the twinmoss didnt, so didnt want 4 sticks with the same serial numbers as it might cause problems?
