Yggdrasil Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Hello, I just built a configuration with Asus P7D55D and core i5. The fact is that i bought a CMD4GX3M2B1600C8 memory kit. I then discovered that there is 2 identical version of this kit, with only a letter change in the reference. according to corsair site CMD4GX3M2B1600C8 is recommended for AMD phenom, and CMD4GX3M2A1600C8 recommended for intel i5/i7... what are the main differences beetween these 2 identical modules ? Should i expect stability and compatibility issues for my system ? as i got the "phenom recommended one" ? thanks for your answers.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Difference = unknown. Can't see why it wouldn't work however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbross Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Hello guys ! I would want a clear answer to that question too. From the specs available on this very site, I get that the only difference between the A & B types are the performance profiles embedded in the modules, i.e. XMP vs BEMP, respectively. How much of a difference does that make ? Will a P55 motherboard be able to read the BEMP performance profile ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowbeard Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 No, P55 will not be able to use BEMP profiles. At this time, we have only done validations for the memory as it is listed on our site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
