Installed New RAM. Compatible with old?

I purchased a 1GB stick of RAM from MemoryTen for my LG LS50 which previously had 256MB.
I just added the 1GB stick to the empty slot for a total of 1280MB. Is it Ok to have it like this. normally you see 2 x 512 or 2 x 1024. comp seems to run great now with that added 1024 but am I slowing it down by having that small chip in aswell.

what are your thoughts?

Thanks

I disagree a little. If it is the system in your sig, then you will loose dual channel capability. While the system should run better with the extra memory, it would run even better if you used dual memory controllers. This is only possible [with amd systems] with memory of matched size, speed, etc.
