Hi, I'm currently running a 2gb 1333mhz and a 4gb 1600mhz stick and have had no problems so far. I was browsing ebay and saw these really cheap high density sticks that should work with my mobo.
Can I run a 2gb, 4gb and 8gb high density stick at once? or should i just get a 4gb one so i can run it in dual channel with my other one?

The ram I'm considering: http://www.ebay.com/itm/8GB-PC3-12800-DDR3-1600-DIMM-Memory-For-AMD-990FX-990X-970-790FX-790X-Chipset-MB-/231627932556?hash=item35ee19c38c:g:Q3UAAOSwgQ9VrMqo

Specs:
M5A97 LE R2.0 (970 chipset)
FX6300 @ 4.4
R9 280x
Cooler Master 600w

You can try - there are no guarantees when mixing DRAM - it works or it doesn't, if it doesn't you can sometimes get them to play with voltage/timing adjustments ;)
