Will it be okay if I add another 4GB kit on my PC

Hi, I currently have 2x2GB OCZ DDR3 kit and planning to upgrade it to 8GB. Is it okay if I add another 2X2GB kit on my 3rd and 4th slot?

We need to know what motherboard you are using and which version of windows?

Yes no problem although it would be best to just buy a new 2x4GB RAM kit if possible

2x4GB is the best bet - there are no guarantees when 'adding' additional DRAM that it will even play with the old DRAM. With the old, 2x2GB of OCZ you may have a mobo that isn't even compatible with today's DDR3 - is the mobo an older model 1156, 1366, 775?

It's an AM3+ motherboard

Then the new should be fine 😉
