I have purchased a DDR3 SDRAM stick that is 2 gig but not the same brand or product number as the rest 3 sticks I own. Will anything be effected? The 3 sticks are also DDR3 SDRAM 2 gig.
 
Solution
In theory it shouldn't matter mixing brands as long as the specs are the same, but it does sometimes happen that two particular brands just won't play nicely together. It's rare but I have had that problem at least once.
