Iwould like to know what would be effefct of having 2 different sizes of memory bar on one system. Like puting 256 and 128 on the same board..

What I would like to know is: -
will I be able to acces the sum of them
if there is a problem what is the problem and how can iy be solved
why there is a problem
what cause the problem
how is the problem caused
ps try to be clear from this point and use as simple language as you can

A dual-channel board will require them to be identical only if you want to utilize dual channel. Otherwise, they will function like single channel modules which is perfectly fine. Dual channel has been shown to be a pretty useless feature anyway.

OLD systems, like those with EDO SIMMs and such required identical pairs because, basically, each module was only half of what the system needed. It's as if you split one 64bit DIMM into two smaller 32bit DIMMs and the motherboard still needed every trace connected to run. In these systems, you would not be able to access the sum of them unless they were identical.
