For the Ram gurus here, a question. What happens if you mix FPM and EDO Ram in an 8600/9600? Machine gets flakey, won't boot at all, smoke and flames, or?? Also, I just picked up a few sticks that reportedly were pulls from an 8600/300, but according to the Chipmunk site and the Mitsubishi chip markings, one stick is 3.3v. Someone on this forum once said that a 3.3v stick in an 8600 will cause smoke...that's for sure? I'm loathe to experiment.

Thanks in advance for any clarification, insight.
