I'm sorry if this is a common question, but my search turned up all kinds of memory information and I coudn't find an answer to my question after the first 20 posts or so.
Right now I have 2 256MB PC2700 sticks or RAM. I want to upgrade and Circuit city is having sticks of 512 MB PNY PC 2700 or 3200 (your choice) RAM for 17.99, which I think is a pretty good deal.
So my first question is: can I mix and match and have 2 256MB pc2700's sticks and a 512MB pc3200 stick?
My second question: Can I tell if my computer can support 3200 just by the knowing the fact that it supports 2700 now. (Meaning if I take out the 2700, put in 3200, does the fact that it supports 2700 mean it would also support 3200?)
Thanks. I appreciate all your guy's help.
