[SOLVED] Two pairs of RAM - how should they be used?

[JudMc]

I have a computer with dual-channel DDR3 memory, and each channel has a black slot and a white slot. I have two matching Samsung 4GB sticks in the black sockets. I'm getting two more 4GB sticks from a different maker, Hynix. Should I just put the new sticks in the white slots, or should I put Samsung in one channel and Hynix in the other?

Won't really matter but if mixing ram causes issues ie system reserved memory then ya, try changing them around. Memory can be finicky, fussy individuals they are.
