Hi,

I am currently building a new pc through computerplanet. I currently have 'Crucial 8GB PC3-12800 1600MHz' but I have to get another stick of RAM in my build so should I go for the cheapest one available: '2 GB 1333MHz'? I dont feel I need anymore RAM but will i able be able to use both the 2GB stick and 8GB stick in conjunction?

Hi,

Yeah... I wouldn't do that. You are better off getting two sticks of memory in one pack from one brand, it stops compatibility issues among other problems.

Take my word for it...

Hope I helped, any more questions ask!
