Mixing RAM

[LordDarik]

Is it safe to mix two different brands of memory? For example, if I mixed 2x512mb of PDP (3200) at timings at 2-3-2-5 and 2x1GB of OCZ (3200) at the same timings.

1) What chipset does your motherboard use (or what brand and model of motherboard, or what brand and model of computer)

2) What core revision does your CPU have?

It's the new ASRock, with the AGP and PCIe slot. CPU core is Venice if that's what you mean.

In that case I think you'll be able to make the mismatched capacities work, because Venice's memory controllers are revised and are supposed to add that capability. Good luck and welcome to the Forums 🙂

Thanks man, I really appreciate it.
