Would using subdomains instead of TLDs cause any errors in WHM? I've successfully used subdomains instead of TLD's but I just need to be sure. The subdomain would have access to cPanel and all of those features.

Should memory cards match? For example, let's say you have 768 MB RAM installed in your computer (one being 256 and the other 512). Isn't that wrong? And, if they don't match, what effect does this have on the PC's performance? Thank you =)
