I'll tkae it thats a no, there aint any problems with it then
been to long since I did any sort of upgrading with PC's
the last time was on a PIII 800 in 2000 (I think) I remember someone saying something where if you were to use DDR ram you needed to make sure that the ram amounts were the same
clearly they were talking shit
Anyhoo, thats all I needed to know

The only thing that should change is the timing. If one is CS2 and the other is CS3, the timing will go at the slower CS3 for all chips.
