Simple RAM question

[[-Stash-]]

So which do I go for for my NF7-S 2 and thinking ahead to upgrading to an A64?

Corsair 1GB DDR XMS3200LLPT TwinX (2x512MB) CAS2 @ £192.11

Or...

Kingston HyperX 1GB (2x512MB) DDR PC3500 (KHX3500K2/1G) CAS2.0 @ £209.15

I want to buy today, so I just want a few simple votes Thanks!

Of course, if anyone feels like leaving a comment, feel free as well

Me thinks they'd both be CH5 unless the Corsair is rev 1.1 stuff, in that case, the vote would swing more towards the Corsair as then it'd be BH5 $hit.

Don't know about the Kingston stuff but why would you pay more for CH5??


Just my

[dim3z]

if ure gonna get CH5 u might aswell save some money on it, buy Kingston Value Ram with CH5 chips.. that or just buy BH5 cos it rules

[[-Stash-]]

I guess I should ask what chips are on those sticks. So CH-5 is CH-5 is CH-5 then huh?

Between the 2 I'd get kingston just because it's my experience that kingston tends oc a little further.

If I were you I'd just get 1gb of HyperX PC3000 since those will definately be BH5/6.

CH-5 is CH-5 is CH-5. But this doesn't mean that all will perform the same, as they're variations in stick to stick performance (alot of inconsistant performance, seemingly, in CH-5 memory). Purchase the cheapest stick from a quality level/company that you feel comfortable with.

People keep on mentioning KHX3000, but I can't find it anywhere, so... *shrug*

Would this happen to be said KHX 3000 that is pretty much definitely BH5/6?

[Drisler]

Yes that's it
