Definition of 'Matching Memory Modules'?
I've just done a RAM upgrade on an Acer PC. Fitted 2 x 512MB DDR3200 modules in the 2 free slots. According to the Crucial site, this mobo (Acer J89M) requires matching modules in pairs. But upon inspection, the existing RAM consisted of 1x512MB and 1x256MB. I'm guessing that it originally had 256MB, and someone previously…
