I have (1) 8GB PC3-12800MB/s in there now.
The ones he gave me are marked PC3-10600 which the computer can support, but isn't the same as what it came with.

I think I'll give it back to him and leave well enough alone. My computer is running fine for now. It'd be nice to have the full 12GB in there but I'd rather it not run amok putting it in.

Guess I'm getting even more conservative in my old age than I was previously.

Thanks!
You may be able to run it, but the original chip will run at the slower clock speed.
