I recently purchased 8 gigs of ripjaws (model: F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL , 2 sticks of 1600mhz).
Parts already in my build affected by this:
Gigabyte GA-890GPA-UD3H Motherboard
AMD Athlon II x4 645 "Propus" CPU
G.Skill F3-10666CL8-2GBHK Memory
^ 2 sticks of 1333mhz ram
Basically what I want to know is what the best configuration would be.
Ideally I would like to have both sets of ram for a total of 12 gigabytes.
I have done limited research, but it seems possible to overclock the 1333mhz ram to match the other two sticks, then set the multipliers so the cpu clock speed is unaffected. Or, just run the new sticks at 1333mhz, but at the 8-8-8-21 settings on the original sticks for more stability. Or I just have it all wrong. I'm not a stranger to using bios or anything like that; I built this computer, I just have ignorance towards this kind of situation.
In any case, I would really appreciate any solid info or advice.
