So I have a question for you guys, I want to know what you would do in my place. So I have this older ram siting in the basement 2x2gb DDR3 1333 CL9 TakeMS.
I know if I put it in my machine that every module will run at 1333 mhz, but I don't know will it use dual channel or not. Also I hear "ghost stories" that it can screw my motherboard and fry RAM sockets if all sticks are not the same. I mean I wont get much benefit from 12gb of RAM since I don't realy need more than 8 GB only in some games and apps. Give me your thoughts
