Currently I have 32 memory from samsung  M378A2K43DB1-CTD non ecc

istvans_0-1736526195618.png

and I found Crucial Pro 32GB Kit (16GBx2) DDR4-3200 UDIMM CP2K16G4DFRA32A with very reasonable price 2*16GB at cruical site. I know it wont run at 3200 because the current RAM is only at 2666 BUT will run together?

 

Thank You

@istvans,

 

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

 

Well, you're mixing 2x16GB 2666 MHz RAM with 2x16GB 3200 MHz RAM.  I suspect it will run, but at the lowest RAM speed your PC allows.  Generally speaking, it is recommended using identical RAM: same brand, model, speed and capacity.

 

Kind Regards,

Yes I know but samsung does not offer the same memory module anymore and 2666 mhz RAM are higer price than 3200.

 

Thank You anyway!
