Greetings!
I've been messing around with an old Acer Aspire X3910 Desktop:
mATX-Mobo WG43M (Latest Bios 2010)
I've been looking to add more ram to the old thing.
It's current Ram setup is dual Channel 2x2GB sticks: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Memory-PC3-10600U-1333MHz-M378B5673FH0-CH9/dp/B00DUGFEH0
Now I have 1 available 2GB Ram stick which makes the pc not booting when added:
https://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Technology-ValueRAM-1333MHz-KVR13N9S6/dp/B00HV6V56O/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1471612031&sr=1-1&keywords=Kingston+2GB+DDR3
As far as I can tell their characteristics are the same. Now before I go about messing with the CMOS and whatnot, I considered that because it's a dual channel mobo, a single stick along with the original 2 isn't gonna do the trick. Should I buy a second same one, or it's a lost cause?
Before someone recommends buying an additional pair of the originals, I'm considering the 2nd ram because it's immediately available for purchase( I'm from Greece and buying from Amazon here is a real pain).
