You asking if they'll work ok together? Should be no problem, unless you try and run the 2100 and 2700 speed. Still possible though.

Yeah im not going to OC the ram. just wanted to see if they would have a problem . I guess what happens is the 2700 basically sees the 2100 and knocks itself back to run with it??

Its like marching in a single file line. No matter how fast the man in the middle of the line can walk, no one can go any faster than the slowest person is walking.

I figured that was the way it went but always wanna be sure before I screw something up silly style.
