Can I add a 2*2Gb pair to my 2*1Gb pair?

I always hear about how important it is to ensure memory modules match so was wondering just how closely they do have to match.

Currently I have 2Gb (2*1Gb) of ddr2 pc2-6400 RAM with the following timings: 800MHz, 4-4-4-12 2T @ 2.1V (EPP). I have 2 slots free that I want to put more memory in.

I was wondering if it was okay to get a 2*2Gb pair but with the same timings or if the module sizes had to be the same too?
 
Cool cheers. Well the only reason for adding an extra 4gb was just because I could. Is there not much of an advantage of 6 over 4? Mainly play computer games, but also do some video editing and 3d work every now and then...
