You should benchmark it to test it, but my experience is that 2x 512MB alone might be best.

That said, the total capacity of your memory may help you more than any speed hit that may arise from your system trying to read from the various modules on different channels.

Also, if the memory has different specifications, the system is only going to be running as fast / tight as the weakest pair.

Just make sure that the sets are on matched slots to be in dual channel mode.

Maybe download Everest's memory benchmark and see what 2x 512 does for you and then what all four modules does.
