Ok so about 2 years ago i biult my friend a computer and one day he got mad at his g/f and threw the computer, well the other day he brought me the video card ram and hhd out of what was left. i have an old computer i put the video card in and it started right up and works, now thats also not online so i didnt download any drivers but the display was working so i guess its fine.
the older comp is still running ddr ram and the sticks from his comp is ddr3 1600 2x2g sticks. So what i want to know is can i stick them in my comp i have with my ram at the same time will that be ok?
