I've never heard of any issues about size mixing.  I've never read a user
manual that says use only certain sizes together. It would be a surprise if
your system has a problem with this mixture, unless it doesn't support a 256
Mb DIMM.


I have 2 DIMM slots on my system and currently have 64mb in each.

I'm going to get a 256mb and would like opinions on whether it's wise to use
it and one of the 64's (320 total) or whether I should just use the single
256 DIMM?

I know if I mix sizes the larger needs to go in the first slot. I've gotten
conflicting info from various sources on size mixing and would appreciate
any wisdom or clarification offered.
