Will I be able to run my new Memory on my A7V133?

[Greyshoe]

When I originally put my system together I ordered the recommended Ram from Crucial:
256mb SDRAM, PC133 ? CL=2 ? Unbuffered ? Non-parity ? 7.5ns ? 3.3V ? 32Meg x 64
Crucial part #CT32M64S4D7E

I was able to buy a higher quality stick and a very good price but Crucial does not list it as
Recommended Ram:
256mb SDRAM, PC133 ? CL=2 ? Registered ? ECC ? 7.5ns ? 3.3V ? 32Meg x 72
Crucial part # CT32M72S4R7E

I understand this memory is primarily used for servers. I realize it may be overkill for my personal computer (Running an Asus A7V133 @ 1200 ) but will I be able to use it along with my original memory and will there be any downsides?

It's not a good idea to mix ECC & non-ECC memory.

Do they corrupt each other? If you have some reading material regarding these 2 memory components that you could point me to that would be great.

The A7V133 does NOT support ECC DRAM. ECC DRAM is slower than regular RAM and can not be used on the A7V133. Get regular UNregistered CAS2 RAM for the A7V133.
