Wired Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Please provide part numbers to what you're referring to. In general though, the GT line is the higher end series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00firebird Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 how about CMD8GX3M4A1600C8 compared to CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 ? ignoring the fact of 2x4 vs 4x2 of course. or two sets of CMP4GX3M2A1600C9 compared to CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 CMD8GX3M4A1600C8 vs CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 = CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 because it's only 2 sticks. Less stress on the memory controller. Minimal performance difference. NEVER recommended to mix kits, so don't try 2 kits of CMP4GX3M2A1600C9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wired Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Outside of testing there's no way to know if they're compatible due to multiple variations in manufacturing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
