    Hello, I have a question, is it possible to combine the memory dice with, for example, 2 other companies? i.e. I have 4 gb of goodram and I want to buy 4 more, I can, for example, from Samsung or I also need goodram. Thank you in advance for the answer :)

    You can connect, but it would be good if the bone had the same clock speed (Mhz) and delay (CL)

    Theoretically yes, but in practice, he doesn't always want to work together.
    Have you checked your hardware, will it handle as much memory as your system has, how many bits?

    As a curiosity, I will add that some chipsets, e.g. P35 for lga775, create a dual channel, e.g. with 2x1GB + 2x2GB (6GB in total) of two different companies and with different timings

    And record a movie for you, including the inside of the computer and charging the computer?
    Before you accuse someone of something, make sure you are right.
    I use 4 dice: 2xadata extreme vitesta 4: 4: 4: 12 1GB + 1x adata extreme vitesta 2GB + some kingmax with 5: 5: 5:15 timings. All dice are clocked at 800MHz.

    No, but show the "memory" tab from the CPU-Z program

    Did you read the wiki article yourself? Somehow I don't think so :)
    Motherboards based on modern chipsets also support dual channel mode when we use two pairs of memory with different capacities (e.g. 2x256 MiB + 2x512 MiB). - Quote from the wiki

    OK, you are right, so far I thought to get "dual" memories must have the same capacity. (this is what I have on my PC, different capacities do not give the dual effect)

    I thought so too until I tried it.
    At the beginning I thought that the album was good for me. I even flashed the bios but all the signs in the sky and earth confirmed that it was possible. I don't know what it looks like on other chipsets but the P35 said that it made no difference to it.

Topic summary

Combining RAM from different manufacturers is theoretically possible, but practical compatibility can vary. It is advisable to match clock speeds (MHz) and CAS latency (CL) for optimal performance. Some chipsets, like the P35 for LGA775, can support dual-channel configurations with mixed capacities and brands, allowing combinations such as 2x1GB and 2x2GB. Users have reported successful setups with different brands, but results may differ based on specific hardware and BIOS configurations. It is essential to verify motherboard specifications and use tools like CPU-Z to check memory settings.
