Will my Macbook's Ram fry if i use 1.5 gig of ram?

im sorry if there is a post about this already.. and there probably is something about this in some posts, but i cant seem to find any information

i was wondering.. i have 1 gig stick and 2 512mb of ram that already came with the macbook. But will anything happen.. like will my ram "fry" if i put my 1 gig with 1 512 mb? they seem to be "A semitry".

please, advise because i dont want my baby to die

So, adding more RAM will slow down the unit...?

no, more RAM will speed up your "unit".

No, but adding different amounts in each slot, such as 1GB + 512Mb, gives slightly less performance than two identical amounts, such as 2x1GB. The difference is so minute it doesn't matter, but someone always mentions it, so I did too. I'm weak like that.

Perosnal i would say purchase another 1gb stick and have 2 x 1gb!!

Okay, so what happens if I install 2 gigs of RAM in my 14" iBook? Isn't the "limit" 1.25 gigs?
