new Ram

If by "kind" you mean brand, no not really. Some are known as more stable, or better at overclocking, but pretty much all of it works. If by "kind" you mean specs, then yes. I would stick with duplicating what you already have into the other two slots.

Thats not really even an issue.
Unless you are using top of the line bleeding egde ram!!
O have 2 gigs of DDR ram in my system....using 3 sticks of ram.
2 x 512 and 1 stick of Muskin value 1 gig memory!!
So its not really even an issue!!

If there was an issue it would be most likely compatability issues that exist between some ram and mobo`s!!
 
I just meant that if he needs DDR400 he should get more DDR400. As to mixing 512s with 1g, doesn't that keep you from running dual channel?

What's with you using exclamation marks like you're yelling at people?

Anyway it does matter what kind of memory you get if you are doing any kind of overclocking. If not, then it won't make any difference at all. Although if you mix DDR400 with DDR266 your DDR400 will default to 266 unless you attempt to run your 266 at 40 which is overclocking.

I would still try to keep the same specs.
