DDR2 RAM required

[amdhappy]

I have installed in my PC Corsair Dominator 4096MB Memory Kit DDR2 PC2-8500 1066MHz.

I have been looking round but it seems that it is not being sold anymore.

My question... Can I get another kit like Kingston HyperX 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 PC2-8500C5 1066MHz to join my Corsair ram?

Would it matter if I use two different brands?

Many thanks.

The Kingston is 5-5-5-15 and 2.1V, which seems to match the timings and voltage of the Dominator I can find details of, so you should be OK.

You'll need to provide the exact model of the Dominator RAM to check this.

Two caveats:

1) If your system is overclocked then filling all 4 RAM slots can affect the overclock

2) You need to be running a 64 bit operating system to use more than 4GB

Thanks for the reply.

1) My system is NOT overclocked.

2) OS in 64bit already.

All looks good then thanks!
