Elshiftos Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 I currently have 2 x CMX512-3200C2PRO, on a 4 slot KN8-SLI. Would I run into problems if I were to fill the 2 extra slots with a pair of 1GB modules like these: http://tinyurl.com/27b75c I would like to make use of the old modules if possible, but not if it affects performance and reliability.

RJLeong65 Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 It is never recommended to mix different memory modules - not even different sizes of the same line of memory modules. Your existing 512MB modules are double-ranked, which when mixed with any new 1GB modules will result in mixed IC sizes and densities. And mixed IC densities will result in reliability issues down the road (if your system even POSTs at all with mixed IC densities). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
