Hi all. I have my new PC which has 2 x 4GB sticks of DDR Corsair Vengeance running at 1600MHz.
Looking at my old PC, it's over 7 years old. It was a solid good build but I feel it's far to outdated to sell. But with RAM being expensive, I notice the RAM I have there is in good condition but also old. It's 2 x 2 GB sticks of Corsair DDR2 at 800 Mhz.
Would I be fine putting it in my new build, bringing the total RAM up to 12 GB? I understand they're 2 very different types. However I can dual channel both seperately. Perhaps I'll get a small performance increase?
