Hi guys
My mobo has 4 DDR3 ram slots on it. A friend of mine has 2x2GB RAM left for me real cheap. But I want to have 8GB in my build. Now can I use all my 4 slots with 2GB RAM or will that result in complications? And should I just go with 2 new 4GB sticks. Oh and I'm looking to OC in the future, will that change the situation? (thinking about heat & competability problems. My mobo is an ASUS M5A97. and my friends RAM is ocz gold.
