It shouldn't matter. I have a //e with both a 1MB slinky card (an AE
Ramfactor) and a 1MB RamWorks III.

With just the RamFactor with 200K free, I got an AW desktop of around
155kb or so.

With the RWIII added to the same system, the desktop went to 800KB or
so.

My conclusion is that AW3 is deciding to use the RW3 ram instead of
the slinky ram when both are present, but perhaps it is just deciding
to use the ramcard with the most free ram?
