It's better to have similar sizes rather than varying ones, as it usually speeds things up. I’m not sure about the current setup, but in the past, unequal sizes meant you’d get full speed for the first 4GB on both sticks (like 8GB total), then drop to single-channel for the remaining 4GB. I usually suggest buying a matching pair, but on a Pentium chip you probably won’t notice any difference.

You'll probably focus more on the 12GB or RAM capacity than the speed of the RAM. Four gigabytes is hardly enough memory nowadays, and most web browsers consume it rapidly.
