memory change

[rocknroll]

had this posted on my build.

what is the difference spec and design wise and am i better off now?

Change to 8GB KINGSTON HYPER-X GENESIS DUAL-DDR3 1600MHz (4 x 2GB KIT) from 8GB CORSAIR XMS3 DUAL-DDR3 1600MHz (4 x 2GB KIT)

Identical, just diff manufacturers. Kingston runs more stably on x58 chipsets, but i doubt thats what u ordered if u have dual channel memory (2x2gb)

at least the blue kingston modules will match the case fans.

I must admit, they do look very very nice and the heatsinks arent cheap, theyre of good quality.

No difference in performance, simply different make as Slei says. We have discontinued XMS3.
