Hey guys, I've got a pc that WAS running 2gb of OCZ Reaper (pc2-8500) and due to my own stupidity it's now running 1gb of Reaper :(

What I want to know is, without buying another matched pair, if I bought a stick of Kingston HyperX with the same rating and timings (ie. PC2-8500, 5-5-5-15) would the system run like it used to? or would the Kingston slow the Reaper down? Plus would it run duel channel as it used to and indeed would it even work at all?

Thanks in advance!
