No, mixing two types of DDR3 at 1600MHz is not recommended as it can cause instability and damage.

Sure, mixing two RAM sticks from different manufacturers is possible if they match in speed and type. Let me know!

Occasionally, certain DDR2 boards struggled to connect properly.

Then I'd imagine even DDR3 and DDR4 would have the same repercussions. Nobody can actually say for sure it will work. You have 50% chance. I've seen good and bad outcomes. Ball's in your court.

It was really a mistake, but I just went along with it.

It might be possible, but remember to verify timing consistency. If it functions, confirm speeds remain identical so the CPU memory controller operates uniformly across all sticks.

It's simple. Keep the slow RAM in the first slot, as suggested by the board.
