I have currently 1 GB (2x512) of Kingston HyperX PC3000. Currently they are running at PC3200 speeds (200MHz) at Cas 2, 6-2-2. This is BH-5, I made sure of it when I bought.
I am looking to add another 1GB, and I'd like to add something that can allow me to keep my current speeds. Probably looking at 2x512 of PC3200. Really, with so many new RAM choices and brands and chips, my major concern is compatibility. I've read of different versions of Corsair not playing well with each other for example. I mean, if 2 different models of RAM from the same manufacturer can't play together, what are the chances that I buy some A-Data (for example) and it will play with my Kingston? Am I right to be worried about this or is it unlikely to cause problems. Current Kingston HyperX prices are ridiculous.
Current PC specs are:
2.4C P4 SL6Z3 @ 3.0 GHz
Mobo = Epox 4PCA3+
above mentioned RAM
