Hi

I have been helping my nephew to order Hyper-X modules. Myself I have KHX3200AK2 sets, 512 and 1G, and we planned to get him and his brother the same so we could mix our sticks in the future.

I thougth the KHX3200K2 where out of production, so I didn't bother to check what he was about to order. Now he has ordered the KHX3200K/2G sets, and I am worried these are not as good as the A ones. The Kingston timing says these are cl 2.5 and the A:s are cl 2.

The non A:s used to be bh-5, but what are they made of now?

Should I advice my nephew to change the order to A:s?

They run nForce 4 systems with socket 939, Asus and MSI.

Thanks

Seems like you've answered your own question...

Well, the old BH-5 version of the non A sticks can be run real fast. What I really want to know is what kind of chips the new ones are made of.
