mystvearn Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Hi, I wanted to upgrade my current 4 gb XMS2 to 8 gb but was a bit confused. My ram is this: http://www.corsair.com/_datasheets/TWIN2X4096-6400C5.pdf When I viewed the website, I saw this: http://www.corsair.com/products/xms2/default.aspx When I used google products (UK) to find the same ram, I noticed that the price for the purple colour graphics is more expansive at about £90. The one with the blue grapics are at £50. They are the same thing right? Iv'e read the specs, looks similar, but one is way expansive than the other one.

Wired Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 XMS series has multiple product lines within them (not to mention the physical characteristics of those 2 pictures are different, one has an extended head spreader up top). Keep in mind that IC prices change daily, and as such so does the price of memory. What are the actual part numbers that you are looking to purchase?

Synthohol Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 and please keep in mind mixing 2 kits is not recommended and rarely work at listed speeds when mixing 2 or more kits. it would be best to purchase a single 8 Gb kit to be guaranteed and supported.

mystvearn Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 Please provide direct links to the sales pages in question. Where is that? Oh well, I might as well cancel that thought then. Will do it for my next build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
