Hi everyone, I haven't really had time to follow modern computers, though I have an interest. With my classes out for a while, and a couple computer situations coming up at the same time I've tried to delve back into computers. I am running the old machine in my sig.
I built a computer a few months ago for my roomate, in which we put 2g (2x1g) Corsair XMS3200 DDR400 RAM. He decided to change his RAM, and has an extra stick, which I have ended up with. My question is, if I am currently running 3 512 sticks of DDR333 and I ditch one off of my NF7-S v2 (which supports DDR400) and toss this in, will I effectively be running 2g of DDR333, or will something worse happen? I am very sure that the DDR400 can't run faster than the DDR333.
Anyway, I don't know too much more about the RAM, though I'd love to learn more about all this stuff. None of it has been OCed though.
