Adding old PC100 DIMMS alongside newer PC133 - OK?
My kids have a pretty old PC (a P4 1.6MHz) which has a single PC133
DIMM module fitted (128 or 256Mb, can't remember). I happen to have two old 64Mb PC100 DIMMs from an old PC kicking about at home - would it be OK/feasible/sensible to fit these in the two vacant slots on the kids' mobo? I realise the old memory is slower, but would that nevertheless be compatible with the newer DIMM? Or could doing this slow the whole machine down? I appreciate that it would be best to buy new memory but I don't want to spend money on such an old PC - the current suggestion is a zero-cost option. Thanks David |
