Wierd RAM question

[timtim86]

Hey,

I have two 1GB sticks of Corsair XMS2 RAM that I bought separately, one from the US and one England, both with the model number CM2X1024-6400. They're meant to have timings of 5-5-5-12 and no EPP. However, I just put CPU-Z on my computer and it says that the first stick, the one i bought in the US, has a model number of CM2X1024-6400C4, with timings of 4-4-4-12 and EPP. The English one is normal. What the hell is going on? Is it something wrong with CPU-Z or did i get sent a better piece of RAM by Newegg?

Will this affect the speed of the paired RAM? Just on a side note, I don't think Corsair even sell the C4 version in single 1gig sticks?

Any help would be appreciated, Tim

C'mon someone must have some idea what's going on here!

I replied to this once

CM2X1024-6400
CM2X1024-6400C4

2 different part numbers?

hmm, it didn't show up on the thread? Strange... Well, CPU-Z shows two different part numbers, but the RAM itself is almost exactly the same, bar the font on the labels. What do you think it could be Clunk?

P.S. If I wasn't clear, the RAM I bought should be exactly the same, as they have the same part numbers, but CPU-Z shows them up to be different. I'm lost.

Probably just a different revision, but to be sure, ask in the corsair forum up there ^^
