Corsair Naming

Aspect · Dec 19, 2003, 10:25 AM

Im looking to get another stick of ram , when i bought mine it was just the 3200LL but now that isnt about. Theres a pro which is a different black version and a PT version. I have a feeling mine could be the PT because they may have bought the new name out when the black version was released. I just wanna check its the same before i buy it. Ill be buying from here http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatal...orsair_65.html

Yes, those are the same but with a platinum heatspreader. The Pro sticks have little LEDs on them that show ram activity but should also be the same. Either should work fine with what you have.

Timings change on performance modules all the time for Corsair, Mushkin, etc. It's because they can't promise exactly how good a batch of RAM modules will perform until they test them out.
