I would personally stick with the 6GB set. Mismatching memory timings/speed, volts and ram size can cause all sorts of problems.

well , i just mixed the 3X2GB patriot 1600 8-8-8-24  + corsair 3X1GB 1600 9-9-9-24,
Total 9GB .
its working great, the XMP option activate at 9-9-9-24 1.65V 1600mhz .
OC my i7 920 2.66 to 3.8 @ ~1600 memory mhz with no problems..
