It's generally a best practice to match the sticks according to your RAM
channels that your motherboard supports. So if your mobo supports dual
channel RAM, match them in equal pairs, or if triple channel, match in
triplets. I'm sure someone else can provide more detail than that, but it's
my understanding.
