Sorry, I wasn't clear enough :-) They should be the same exact model of RAM, vendor included.
Different models and brands can have different CAS latency, slightly different voltages and so on.
They might be identical in manufacturing, they might not. That's why I said you got lucky and that's why people suggest to have 2 exactly identical memory sticks.
Oh yeah I see, that's the reason why (some) RAM sticks are sold as pairs, right? I'll keep in mind next time!
Yeah I think it's exactly for that reason...
