Hi. I recently purchased a late 2012 mac mini (the base model with 4GB of Ram). I decided to upgrade to 8GB, so I ordered an upgrade kit. Just noticing that the memory I received has PC3 10600 in parentheses where as the original memory sticks that came with the make are (PC3 12800). The mac recognizes the memory and everything seems fine, but I was wondering if the difference could effect performance or have a negative effect on my mac? Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

- Phil
