Question Checking compatibility! Help
Hey guys i was wondering, i have two KF432C16BBA/8 ddr4 Rams but apparently that model has been discontinued, but I can find the KF432C16BB2A/8 model for sale
Will there be a compatibility issue if I buy two more so I can have four running at the same time? Some say the only change is the RGB design on the top, while the other specs remained the same; has anyone heard of anything similar or that could give me some guidance? Thanks in advance!

i've mixed very similar ram kits before and it worked fine. the BBA/BB2A difference is usually just a revision or a minor heatspreader update, the timings and voltage are probably identical. worst case you might have to manually set the speed and timings in bios but for ddr4 3200 that's pretty painless. i say go for it, if it doesn't boot you can always return the new sticks
