Memory CPU question
I am considering upgrading my RAM to 2 or more gig (I already have a 1gig DDR400 stick in there). Is it better to have the same brand of memory throught or will various brands "play nice" together? What's the potential downside of mixing brands? And which will improve performance more: the RAM upgrade or bumping the CPU from Athlon 64x2 3800 to 4400?
Thanks!
