[QUOTE="AngryGreek, post: 677570, member: 54171"] As far as brands, you should be ok mix and matching as long as the speeds are the same. I had a guy do it the other day with some Apple and some Mushkin. Other than ordering the wrong speed (5300 when he needed 6400) the first time, it worked just fine. However, make sure that each pair of slots are identical. [url]http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/MacPro_MemoryDIMM_DIY.pdf[/url] That has an image showing which slots are which. Just make sure your speeds are correct, and that each pair is identical size/brand. [/QUOTE]
