Mixing DIMMs

[alemiras]

I own a celeron II 633 MHz (66 MHz FSB) and 2 dimm sticks, one 256 MB PC-133 and 1 32 MB PC-66. Since the cpu´s FSB is just 66 MHZ should install the 2 sticks togheter ?

hi

you should be able to mix them together, since the 133 mhz ram would be running at 66 mhz, so there should be no problem.

your fsb under clocks your ram.

the only problem you would have is if you got a 133 mhz board and a 133+mhz processor (P3/4 or AMD)
Then you would not want to run them together as you would rather have 256 mb running at 133 mhz than 288 mb running at 66.

they will run fine together at 66 on a 66 bus
