DDR Memory question

hertz · 2007-08-01 12:22:29

HI I currently have 2 x 512mb DDR PC3200 ram units in my machine, I would like put in another 1024mb, my question is should I use another 2 x 512mb or can I use a 1024mb ram unit? I heard rumours that RAM run best if inserted in pairs. Is this so with DDR PC3200 memory? hertz:confused:

Yes though technically it depends on the CPU.

Get another 2x512MB of the same type you already have however if that is not possible I would recommend getting Crucial RAM for compatibility as it plays nice with other brands.
