Memory ram question
I have installed in my motherboard GIGABYTE - Motherboard - Socket 775 - GA-X38-DS4 (rev. 1.0) the Kingston hyperx 2x2GB,in dual channel,2GB in yellow slot 1 + 2GB in yellow slot 3
(KHX6400D2B1K2/4G 4GB kit DDR2 800MHz Non-ECC (kit of 2 - 2GB) CL5-5-5-15 1.8V) Kingston Technology Company - HyperX blu -
Today in my store room i found a box of Geil 2x1GB memory ram
(2GB 800MHz CAS4 (1GBX2-SKU#GB22GB6400C4DC) GeIL Black Dragon DDR2 800 MHz CL4 Review - Page 1/4 | techPowerUp
So i installed also the Geil ram in dual channel,1GB in red slot 2 + 1GB in red slot 4
And now i have 6GB of ram,so far so good.
Questions:
Is that a good or bad idea?
Is there any better combination,between these ramS? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom Built by me.

That looks OK to me. You have the memory installed correctly, and the channels are correctly populated so that CHA SL0 = CHB SL0 (Yellow) and CHA SL1 = CHB SL1 (Red). | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Home Built, N/A
