I have an asus P5W-DH Deluxe mb and currently have 2GB of Corsair Dominator TWIN2X2048-9136C5D... I've overclocked a little, so I was wondering whether it has to be the same model or I can add other ram (from corsair...), note it's DDR2 memory.
 
Hi mate although its nott hugely recommended it should work fine providing all of the bus speeds match ive done it many times in the past


Hope this helps Dave :cool:
 
Thanks, my prob was loosing overclocking capability, but that's not an issue as I won't need to go above 1066MHz... hope I'm right.
 
i have a quick question that kinda relates to this topic....if my motherboard has 4 ram slots and support for 1066 can 2 of the sticks be 1066 and the other 2 sticks 800?
 
hi mate, yes they can but all the memory modules will run at the speed of the lowest module in this case 800. Hope this helps dave :cool:
