Memory matching?

shayser · 2006-03-19 20:24:15

I've got 4 memory slots, two of which are free. One has 512 PC2100 DDR, another has 512 PC2700 DDR. Can I go ahead and add a 1GB PC3200 DDR DIMM to a free slot without any problems. Edit: Got a 1GB PC2700 DIMM. Presume this will work ok with the 2 x 512?

You should be able to, it will just match the slowest module in the system in this case the PC2100 RAM.

However to be 100% sure you should check your motherboard manual and see what memory arrangements it supports or if there are any things to watch out for.
