No, mixing two sets of RAM is not recommended. Each set should be used separately to maintain stability and performance.

I’m curious about combining different RAM configurations, especially mixing stock timings. Right now I have 16 GB of 2666 MHz CL19 memory (M378A1K43CB2-CTD) from a prebuilt unit. I want more RAM to enjoy modded Minecraft more easily. I’ve upgraded it from CL19 to CL16 using a BIOS setting. OCCT lists the timings as 16-16-16-39. Should I get a new set at CL19 or jump straight to CL16? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Remember that Minecraft's engine has constraints and will likely face problems no matter the hardware, particularly with heavy code loads. Don't rely on RAM tips as assurances for performance improvements. Plan accordingly, knowing it may not work as expected.
