RAM Compatability
I actually have two questions:
#1: When running XP Pro, the max RAM is 3.5GBs. Does this mean that if you have more than that, that anything above 3.5GBs is not utilized? #2: I am currently running 2x2GB sticks of G.Skill 1066 RAM. If I want to get 4 more GBs, can I purchase from a company other than G.Skill (e.g. Corsair) without any loss of performance as opposed to the performance of 2 more G.Skill sticks?
