Asked By TechieTurtle42 On

I'm considering upgrading my computer's memory by adding a new 16GB RAM stick to the 16GB stick I already have, but it's older. Can I expect them to run well together, or should I just upgrade to a full 32GB set? I'm looking for advice on whether this plan is realistic, or if I might run into compatibility issues. Also, should I be concerned if the new RAM is a different brand or speed?

Generally, mixing RAM should work, but there's always a chance things might not go smoothly. The best bet is to use a matched set for reliability. If you mix memory, just keep in mind you could run into some stability issues.
