1Gb + 256Mb ok together?

Nevakonaza · 09-18-2006, 10:20 PM

Alright people,

Hopefully in a few days i will be getting me a 1Gb stick of Pc3200 memory.

Now i currently have 2 sticks of 256Mb Pc3200 so i wanted to remove just the oe 256Mb stick and replace it with the 1Gb so that i have a 1Gb stick + 256Mb stick.

Will this work ok?

Also does it matter which memory socket i put the 1Gb stick in or can it go in any of them?

My motherboard is here....

The maximum supported ram for mobo is 2Gb.

Thanks,I just wanted to make sure it will be ok before i go buying a stick.
