All alone in the moonlight, i can smile at the old days.......
Oops sorry, started day dreaming again!
MEMORY - RAM - Regarding adding two graphics cards to a PC such as having an AGP card & a PCI card, i have been taught that it is a good idea to mix two different brands. Because if you have two of the same make in a PC, they have the same/a very similar chipset, and they can interfere with each other, not combining well.
I want to add more RAM to my systems one spare memory slot.
Does memory work in the same way as graphics cards, in that it is a good idea to use different makes of memory?
Or, is it a good idea to use the same makes of memory?
Or, as long as they are compatible in terms of specifications like DDR, 184 pin dimm slots, PC2700, is the actual manufacturer unimportant?
Many thanks.
PS. here are some useful memory links
