mixing DDR2 ram

dibilo SG

"Faster DDR2 DIMMs are compatible with slower DDR2 DIMMs; however, the faster module runs at the slower module's speed. Using slower DDR2 memory in a system capable of higher speeds results in the bus running at the speed of the slowest memory in use."

Read this on wikipedia. So, if i were to have 2 rows of 256mb DDR2 3200 and buy another 2x DDR2 4200 512mb, all these will run at the speed of 3200Mb/s right?

Can like that mix mix hor?

Add on:

If your computer supports up to eg: DDR2 3200

and you Have a DDR2 6000, it would be converted to running at a speed of 3200.

like wise, DDR2 3200 , but u have a DDR2 1600, it would run too. But at 1600.

But do note of the word behind the DDR. dont go buy ddr2 if you can only use ddr

Thanks to all replies. yes but my gf computer old le so buy 1gb for $20 for her so that her applications runs smoother (Coz we are using webcam everyday so opening words always takes like 1 minute to open).

And i dont think she will be upgrading soon... so just buy for her lor.. so her com can last like 2 more years.
