| 839532 | 2009-12-14 07:57:00 | What is usually better brand and memory: Corsair HX3X12G1600C9 (6x2GB) 12GB DDR3-1600 CL9 XMS3 or Kingston HyperX (6x2GB) 12GB DDR3-1600 Using it for video editing |

| 839533 | 2009-12-14 08:18:00 | Whichever one is cheaper... | lagbort (5041) | ||
| 839534 | 2009-12-14 09:05:00 | Either are good though if you want more reliable memory get ECC supporting memory | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 839535 | 2009-12-14 09:29:00 | Either. But if prices are the same I'd go for Corsair. | qazwsxokmijn (102) | ||
| 839536 | 2009-12-14 09:39:00 | Is there much difference between CL7 and CL9 and will you notice the difference? And there is only $40 difference in price between the Corsair and Kingston HyperX T1. Not worried about price because more expensive doesn't make it always better. Memory I was look at are: Kingston HyperX T1 www.computerlounge.co.nz Corsair www.computerlounge.co.nz |

| 839537 | 2009-12-14 17:36:00 | Usually the lower number is faster but the difference is so small you won't physically see any difference | gary67 (56) | ||
| 839538 | 2009-12-14 19:18:00 | Personally I'd go Corsair. Nothing wrong with Kingston, just, I tend to prefer Corsair. Also looks like the Corsair modules are rated for 9-9-9-24, whereas the Kingston are 9-9-9-27. Not really something you'll notice, to be fair, but hey. | inphinity (7274) | ||
| 839539 | 2009-12-14 20:52:00 | the heatspreaders on the kingston sticks looks cooler. that's about the only difference you're likely to notice. i wouldn't be surprised if they both used the same chips underneath. | pablo d (15490) | ||
| 839540 | 2009-12-14 22:19:00 | Is this information important because I'm intending to use ASUS P6X58D Premium Motherboard. While at the website click on Memory Support List Tab at www.asus.com and looked at the PDF file. I notice that Kingston HyperX T1 KHX1600C9D3K3/6GX was listed but Corsair HX3X12G1600C9 from what I can see didn’t appear on the list. |

| 839541 | 2009-12-14 23:44:00 | So use the Kingston RAM. | Sweep (90) | ||
