Hello,
I'm in the process of looking and building a new machine in the next few weeks. I am looking at building a machine with 24gig of RAM since i'm a heavy gamer and VM user. I have found a good deal for two sets of ram sticks, linked below. Same speed, but different timings. I don't know if there is any negative results from running the below configuration, there seems to be no information I can find on this subject of mixed RAM sticks with different timings.
Motherboard : Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD5 (http://www.gigabyte.com/products/pro....aspx?pid=3450)
RAM Set 1 : G-Skill 16GB (4x4GB) DDR3 2133MHz RipjawsZ X79 Memory Kit CL9 1.65V. Timings are 9-11-10-28-2N

RAM Set 2 : G-Skill 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 2133MHz RipjawsX Memory Kit CL11 (11-11-11-30) 1.5V. Timings are 11-11-11-30
(http://www.ebuyer.com/274061-g-skill...000cl11d-8gbxl)
CPU : Intel Core i7 960 3.2 GHz Socket 1366 8MB L3 Cache Retail Boxed Processor
OS : Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
Question. Will having different timings on the RAM cause problems for this setup?
