Any comments...?

TIA
 
Nothing to worry about.

The 2x2 GB PQ kit is certainly nowhere remotely the same as the HZ 2x1 GB kit you have though.

4 GB kit is Powerchips; 2 GB is Micron.

Luckily the voltages are the same, so that should make things easier.

If you plan to run your new 6 GB OCed, you'll need to make sure TRFC is indeed set to at least 51, as it being set much lower will hold back the 2x2 GB kit.

But overall, things should be okay.
 
Thanks, n7.

I have already set the tRFC to 42 - this seems to be the value recommended for the PK kits (this is actually PK, not PQ).

The bandwidth has decreased a bit, but at least I know that the HZ's are stable with these settings.
