Difference between RAM and Memory Modules??

Solution
"memory module" simply refers to the ram stick itself. Its what they are supposed to be called, but we just call them ram.
They will work, but you can find better ram.

Thank you, I'm making an under $400 APU build, and I want to use Tigerdirect only because of a shipping deal I have and there's no tax, unfortunately I live in TN. So I get taxed from both Newegg and Amazon. :( So that was the best option I could find for ram.
 
The speed of the ram does not really make that much of a difference. You wont norice 1600vs 2133.
The reason I recommend corsair is it is a high quality, trusted brand.
Visiontek typically isnt a name you associate with ram all that often, or ever.
You can also see that the corsair model has a lower latency, meaning it will cycle faster anyway, increasing performance.
