Any real world difference?

oldestgregg · 7 Jul 2015 at 08:36

I need to get more memory to add to my 4770k build but as it wont be my main machine for much longer Im reluctant to spend much on it . At the same time though,I dont want to throw any old stuff in there so I was wondering... would I see any difference in these two brands other than colour?

None what so ever dude they have the exact same timings and clock speed.

Cheers Dice. wish I'd bought 16gb when I built my system as the patriot viper black mamba I have has good timings and runs at 1.5v solid. OCUK only have the 2133 instead of my 2400 and I cant find mine anywhere else to match up another 2 4gb sticks.

Roll on Skylake and DDR4!

I'm skipping Skylake and waiting for Kabylake, No sense in going from a 4790K to a 6700K unless you absolutely NEED the latest CPU for that important 5% performance increase

Real world difference you won't notice any difference between 2133 or 2400.

Yeah I know but the stuff I have is 2400mhz and although OCUK have it in stock it is only the 2133 version so I can't just add another 2 sticks of it

Would it work if I bought another 2 4gb sticks of the same brand but 2133 instead of 2400? I assume it will run at slower speeds but will it hurt performance other than the fact its 277mhz slower?
