n64jive Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Well, my sister bought some extra ram, cuz she needed..and she'd could only buy it by the couple(dunno if they are different types)... So i was wondering if it would be possible for me to put the other chip into my computer so I could have dual-ddr ram? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 1) If the 2 sticks came in the same package, they will be the exact same type/brand/speed. 2) You need to know what kind of RAM your machine currently supports before adding more to it. 3) Dual-channel generally only works with matched sticks of RAM (Like the 2 that came in her package). Using 2 different brands/speeds will throttle both to the slowest of the 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
