Cass latency dfifernce

[xurwin]

whats the differnce of cl7 or cl9? does it give mor speed?

CAS latency, or CL, is the delay time between the moment a memory controller tells the memory module to access a particular memory column on a RAM memory module, and the moment the data from given array location is available on the module's output pins. In general, the lower the CAS latency, the better.

does lower cas latency give more heat to the ram or memory?

Generally, voltage requirements would be the cause of heat. More voltage applied, more heat created.

does corsair dominators really help reduce heat? or gskill ripjaws are equal to it, with lower price

Corsair Dominators usually come from the highest quaality chips available from chipmakers like Micron. In many instances, Corsair Dominators are derived from the highest binned chips available Not certain about G. Skill, but G. Skill uses high quality chips with their performance RAM. Neither Corsiar or G. Skill are chip makers. These company's use chips from Micron (Crucial), Samsung, Elpedia, etc. The RAM will come with specifications regarding speed (data transfer rate), timings and voltage requirements. There should not be a heat issue if used within the Mfg. specs.

These RAM configurators can provide tested RAM guaranteed to work in your MB.

+1 badge nice post informative and to the point
Best answer !

wait! last one. is gskill or corsair just manufacturers of ram? so then crucial or kingston really are the chip makers?

Neither G. Skill or Corsair are chipmakers, the companies are distributors.

so then crucial or kingston really are the chip makers?

Crucial is the retail distributor for Micron, the chipmaker. Kingston is like Corsair, they are a distributor, not chip maker.

Example of chips used on Adta DDR2
