23992 2001-11-08 22:02:00 I'm looking towards getting a new motherboard hopefully with an Athlon 1.4.
(YEA! I 'm currently getting hassled coz my k6 2 500 is not keeping up with the rest of my Lan mates.)

Depending on what board I get, is it possible to mix SDram and DDRram? If not, would I have to totally switch ram if I use either styles.

I currently have an excessive amount of SDram, that I would like to use on my new board and then gradually switch when I get DDRram.

you cannot run both types at the same time. there is a few(very few) motherboards with ddr slots and sdram slots. you can use one or the other not both.

match the hardware. if you are going high end cpu then use ddr. leave the sdram for those with slow machines.
