Spineman Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hi What is the difference between TWIN3X2048-1600C7DHX G and TWIN3X2048-1600C7DHX Apart from the letter G, The addition of which costs an extra £120? :eek: Im looking to buy a new Mobo & debating to go with DDR3 (Gigabyte P35T-DQ6) capability or staying at DDR2 (Gigabyte X38-DQ6). My current Asus Striker Extreme, is driving me insane with it's infamous 'CPU INIT'. Swapping for one of MoBo's mentioned. System will have C2Quad, ATi 2900XT, SAtAII H/Drives(4) SAtAII Burners (2) Any & all suggestions or recommendations gladly accepted, Will be exchanging on 2nd Jan, Thanks all for your time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbuck08 Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 The only difference is the G. It means that it is lead free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spineman Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 I have been licking my current RAM for about an hour a day:eeeeek: , I'm doomed to lead poisoning.. oh why wasn't there a "Do Not Lick" warning on my Corsair RAM... I feel a class action coming on. PS TY for info, don't suppose anybody knows what is benefit of being lead free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbuck08 Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 PS TY for info, don't suppose anybody knows what is benefit of being lead free? Its for those enviromentalist nuts. :laughing: Actually though I think all Corsair RAM will be lead free soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtreeme Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 ya I think it will be standard in most all pc parts soon. My mobo is lead free, I think the new amd cpus are green too (dunno what all is done to the cpu to make safer) I have heard the old methods of cpu fab do make some nasty waiste to deal with. Less toxins in productions = less harmfull by products = better for enviroment. I wouldnt pay a premium for it-but I think its great corsair and some other co's like biostar are taking steps to help. Every little bit adds up. Why cost more now? I heard the solder costs more for one. Second some things require changes in how they are made. Ram being a compact small (kinda crowded) multi layered pcb it prob does add a bit to production costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
