As long as all the ram modules run at the same voltage you're ok. However if their voltages are different you risk hitting constant bluescreens. Whatever the slowest rated ram runs at (Mhz) That's what all the ram will run at.
The only issue with your RAM would be that it will only run as fast as the slowest component. I would consider your power supply's capacity if you plan on using two cards. If you have less than 600 Watts, I'd suggest you use one card.
It's fine. I'd honestly pop for the 1gig version. It's a better performance deal. Do keep in mind that 'playing games at highest settings' and 3D art have little to nothing to do with each other, and are sometimes at odds (specifically heat/stability). That said, the 460 is currently a sweet spot for the money, and should…
Hey Polycount! I'm currently in the process of planning an upgrade for my desktop, and thought it'd be a good idea to ask here to see if what I was going with was a good idea. I don't have too great a budget, but I do want to fix some of the outdated parts of my setup. My work is primarily on 3Ds Max and ZBrush, and heavy,…
@greevar: Currently I have a 550W or a 500W PSU - need to double check, but it's one of those two. Either way, I had a feeling having 2 cards would be too much for my system. @Artifice: I'll look into getting a 1GB model instead. Hopefully I can find one in-store [I generally dislike ordering hardware online]. I've heard…
