Hello, you're planning to upgrade your RAM for dual-channel performance. The frequencies match, which is good. However, the CAS latency differs—one is CL15 and the other CL17. This variation may affect stability and performance. It’s best to confirm compatibility with your motherboard before purchasing.

They can be combined together. The PC will utilize every available RAM at a reduced rate.

This scenario might occur, but the IMC could become unclear

It might get mixed up due to similar sounds or meanings in different contexts.

When frequency varies, it doesn't affect performance. The sticks will maintain the same speed as the slowest. However, differences in CAS latency matter—you may need to adjust one manually to match it.

Over the past few decades, mixing and matching components has become common practice. Latency-tunings are integrated into frequency-adjustments, making the differences in how things work essentially nonexistent.

Probably I might be mistaken. Most of the time I suggest this if it functions, it does.
