I'm contemplating increasing my memory from 4 gb to 6 gb of DDR2-800 RAM and want to know what type and specs on the memory I should buy to add so it all plays nice together and does not decrease performance by upgrading? The system is an HP that can handle up to 8 gb RAM. My system is currently Vista x64, Q6700 2.66 ghz processor and the 4 gb of memory consists of 4 x 1 gb modules. My thought is to leave 2 x 1gb modules and add 2 x 2gb modules to give me 6gb total. Here are the details on the existing memory taken from PC Wizard 2008.
Thanks everyone. Checked the exact timing as suggested. Looks like it shows 6 6 6 18. I assume I'm misreading something and that first 6 should be a 5?
Is there a particular brand and type for that brand that would be a good match to the existing Mosel memory or at least a brand and type that works well for upgrading easily at that voltage (1.8) and timing (5-6-6-18 @ DDR2 800 - assuming that is correct)?
