Hey guys,

I have an Asrock m3a770de motherboard. Currently i have 2x2GB Crucial Ballistix RAM
CL 7/ 1.65v/ 7-7-7-24 (Newegg link-> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820148304)

There is a sale on 2x2GB Crucial Ballistix Tracer RAM with the same exact specs
CL 7 / 1.65v/ / 7-7-7-24 (Newegg link -> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820148327)

If I mix these RAMs (4x2GB) will it works on my motherboard? Do I have to do anything in the BIOS or can I just pop these sticks into my motherboard and do nothing special in the BIOS?

Have you RMA'd your set yet?
I would not invest any more money in the Ballistix line.

It should work but you might need to bump memory voltage or lose timing a bit... memory is certificated to work as 2x and not 4x stick
