Emm, PC successfully booted when i use only one memory stick (now 1GB). And i cant use memtest, i tried some times to made bootable USB-Flash, but its not booted. Btw, earlier I had AC 580W, now 550W.

No, that's abnormal, they will be giving you lots of blue screens because their rates are not the same. Remove the 1Gb stick for sure. When done, attach CPU-Z memory tab and RAMMon report saved as HTML.

I dont use 1Gb sticks now, 2x2GB with different rates.

If you get any blue screens, attach:

- most recent crash dumps
- CPU-Z memory and CPU tabs
- RAMMon HTML report so I can see what you have there at the moment

No, i havent any bsods, everything works ok, just dont know how its bad for PC with 2 sticks with different rates

Ah, take it as an axiom: sticks must be identical to work right. Things like timings, frequency, refresh cycles must be exactly the same in both sticks. Otherwise you're gonna be getting blue screens.

How i read there http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.aspx?model=GA-P35-DS3

Do I have to install matching pairs?
A: No.

So i think nothing so bad when i use 2GB PC2-6400 in 1 slot and 2GB PC2-8500 in 2 slot

Ok, let's see:

A: No.

No, you can install modules one at a time, and you can mix different densities of modules in your computer. But if your computer supports dual-channel memory configurations, you should install in identical pairs (preferably in kits) for optimal performance.

It is a bad idea to have DDR533 and DDR667 side by side. Later if not sooner the system will crash for sure. Why? --> Different operational parameters, frequency, timing, latency, refresh cycles, they just won't be working in "unison".

I tried to put sticks there ways:
1GB-2GB-1GB-0 - PC didnt boot
1GB-2GB-0-0 - PC didnt boot
2GB-0-1GB-1GB - BSOD Page fault in nonpaged area
Now i work in 2GB-2GB(800)-0-0 configuration and its ok.
So how you can see if i tried use 2GB and 1GB with same rates its didnt work.
