I am currently running 2x256Mb of RAM in my computer, and it is the Mushkin with the BH-5 chips in it, which they don't make anymore. As I am playing games such as Far Cry, I am getting major lag, and It has to be the RAM acting as the bottleneck, and so I need to get more, most likely 2x512Mb.
If I do this will I have to get rid of the 2x256 to get dual channel to work, or could I put any 512Mb in along with it, as long as they are all running the same speed, or would that not work? Thanks in advance.
**Edit
If I am running the ram, one set in CH. A and one set (of different make) in CH. B would that work, or would it have to be 4 sticks of the ram in my sig?
