hi guys

first of all , thanks 4 reading this

the thing is that i am going to upgrade my systems ram

i am currently using

946 intel mobo
core 2 duo 1.86
and a dynet 1 gb ram ddr2

and i wish to upgrade now

currently i am having that dynet 1 gb ram in a slot and u know that 946 intel mobo has only 2 slots for the ram and supports 4 gb of ram

can any one tell me that

is it wise to upgrade a 2 gb ram with my current ram or i hav to stick with the same 1 gb again

my friend said that there will be some kind of balancing problem if i use a 2 gb ram in one slot and 1 gb in another one

is it true?

and another thing..

can i go for a different brand ram in my upgrade?
 
well, only a 64-bit OS will utilize 4GB

alot of 32-bit systems use 3GB

depending on what you do 2gb should be enough unless you play crysis on super uber high settings

but no seriously 2GB would be plenty IMO
 
thanks dude

i am using 32- bit os i think(not sure ) . how can we find it out?

xp sp3

the thing is any way i am going to upgrade my system ram .. y to go to 1 gb instead of affording to 2 gb..



and if in the future it may help

along with that my mobo as only 2 slots for ram where i hav a 1 gb already..

the thing is i was not able to play "gear of war" with this 1 gb ram

i use nvidia 7300gt 512 mb

so i thought of going to 2gb single ram for 1 gb ugrade and need to know

is it safe?

and "assasins creed" also requires min 2 gb and more

is it safe to use a 2 gb ram along with 1 gb ram?

and tell me whether i can go for different(good) brand?
