hi folks,

I recently bought some new kit, as follows:

1. A8V Deluxe motherboard.
2. AMD athlon 64 processor
3. 512mb ddr 3200 memory

My question is can I use the other memory stick from my previous set-up with this new memory. The other one is a 512mb ddr 2700.

Thanks for your helps guys,

Gaz.
 
All your memory will run at 2700 speeds. This is a temporary fix for not having enough ram, but since ram is soo cheap get some 3200 later on.
 
so, it wont do any damage. but even tho I have 1 3200, because the other is 2700 is will run at 2700?

No damage, it just wont receive its full potential when using dual-channel.

Will work fine though.
 
With the PC2700 RAM you will probably get similar performance. It might be a little faster, or a little slower, I'm not really sure. You will have 512MB mor RAM, but it will run 33MHz slower. 167MHz instead of 200MHz
