What RAM am I running

[Dr3xus]

Those are the 2 sticks of RAM I am running.
1) What does it mean?
2) Why is the 1 showing 3 freq and the other 2?0
3) What frequency are they running at?
4) Which stick is better?
5) What does "matching pair" of ram mean?

thanks in advance ^_^

One is made by Corsair, and the other one made by Hyundai

Both are running at 333mhz - DDR2 = x2 = 667

The freq at the bottom is the ones that it can handle, and made to do, but the top one is the one you should put your eye on. 333

Corsair is the best

Matching pair means that if you have 2 modules in your machine, they come from the same manufacturer, and same speed, same model nr, etc... normally you buy them already in a pack of two, or three (ddr3 - tri channel)

I have a matching pair for the corsair, but when i put them in the pc becomes very unstable (switches off by itself, only boots 1/3 of the time etc). I removed the 1 stick of corsair and replaced it with the hyundai one (old ram i used previously) and it ram fine. Then I replaced the 1 corsair stick with its "matching pair" and it still works fine. So this should mean both sticks aren't problematic?? I don't get why when I run them concurrently its stops working

If it works that way leave is till you get a better pair.the downgrade of speed will not hamper you ability to use you pc.

Run memory diagnostic tools in DOS to see which dimm is causing the problem.

Get Ultimate Boot CD - loads of memory testing appz on there

Or get memtest or search on google...

Corsair is normally lifetime warranty, so just swop them around for new ones
