Hi. I'm trying to increase my RAM. Currently I have in Slot 2: KVR1333D3N9/2G and Slot 4: KVR1333D3S8N9/2G, which are both x8 bus width. Can I install KVR13N9S6/2 (x16 bus width) in slots 1 and 3?
I understand that memory modules of same specs should be installed in pairs for dual channel to work. It also says on the manual that the DRAM bus width of the memory module must be the same (x8 or x16) - does this mean I can install a pair of x16 RAM in slot 2 & 4, and x8 RAM in slot 1 & 3?
