I recently purchased a new RAM for my system, but I’m unsure if the two units I have will work together. The one I own is Kingston Hyperx Fury hx424C15FB3/8 (factory settings: DDR4-2400 CL15-15-15 @1.2V), and I ordered an identical part from Amazon but discovered it’s actually hx426c16fb3/8 with different timings (DDR4-2666 CL16-18-18 @1.2V). There are clearly differences in frequency and cycle rates. I’ve faced issues before with mismatched RAM causing instability, especially since the one I already have is out of warranty. I need both to function properly. Could you confirm if these two can be used together? Thanks in advance.

It can pose some issues. On Amazon, the complete part number appears on the product page. Consider purchasing a similar item instead.
