    XMS3200 ver 1.1 and 1.2 compatible?

    I'm looking to add some more ram to my PC and I was wondering if Corsair XSM3200 CAS2 rev 1.1 was completely compatible with rev 1.2. I've heard that 1.1's use BH-6 chips and the 1.2's use CH-6 chips.

    Obviously I would rather go with a new set of Twin-X, but I can't afford it. I'll be lucky to float the one stick of ram...

    Try it and see...I can't imagine you doing very well though because when you raise the volts the Ch-5 isn't going to like you and with low volts the Bh-5 isn't going to be liking you..You might get good results though. But I personally can't see them happening.

    I don't have the second stick yet. I'm just trying to find out if it's going to work before I invest in it. I don't have the time, money, or patience to try every single type of ram out there...

    there more different than one would thiunk, the voltage is the major issue.

    Although if your planning to run the 210 fsb in your sig i can see that probably working

    Yeh he can overclock but he can't expect to set a record.
