Title: Stupid (computer) memory question...
Post by: Mars on August 16, 2007, 12:35:36 am
it's generally a bad idea to have different types of memory (say different CAS latency or different sized) on the same MoBo correct?

you can run different size memory just fine, but try to keep the latency and such the same.

It won't hurt anything besides your fast memory's performance... if a memory stick that has slower ratings is used with a faster one, the computer will use the speed of the slower one.  Everything will be just fine.
