Such generic question... can you make a bit more specific please? As in, what are the sticks you have and where you intend to reuse them.

Really need more information to answer that. What are you upgrading from, what are you upgrading to? Are you trying to fit them in your Honda? 

 

Anything, really.

if they are both ddr3, you can almost use them. if your motherboard supports the frequency of those rams then you can use them

It should work just fine. You can reuse your DDR3 RAM.
