Default Ram

I bought 2 X 512 MB RAM last week, I just ran CPU-Z and it says that 1 of the 2 RAM cards is 1024 MB and the other is 512, also at right-click My Computer it says 1.5 GB RAM, could he have given me the 512MB RAM extra accidentally or is the PC reading it incorrectly?

Anyway I'm a very frequent customer there and maybe he gave me extra RAM because they all know me there even the manager because some salesmen werent cooperating by replacing my Apple in-ear headphones that I bough and broke after 3 months, warrenty was for 1 year, also some a wrong driver disk that they gave me once, and another time wrong SD RAM etc...

Then he could sell the 512 and get a 1024, or, if he didn;t want to spend any extra moeny, he could sell the 1024 and get a 512, so he would still have 1gb and he would make money.

What does this have to do with ANYTHING? Has nothing to do with the thread, except it has to do with ram, but so does another 500 threads, but having to do with ram is way to vauge.
