difference between prices...

Hi there,

I was just wondering, what is the difference between the Corsair 2x1gb w/o DHX and the other ones, Corsair 2x1gb DHXwith DHX. It appears to me that the £18.80 is just for the heat sink on the DHX model? I know that one is on sale (at the moment) but is there any other difference that i cant see? The timings, size, speed and models are supposedly the same.
Should i just buy the cheaper ram, and spend £7 on a copper heat sink, here.

As always, any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I *think* the DHX use better chips (probably Micron D9's, tho Corsair are known for changing chips pretty often in their other lines and a quick look at their IC list is inconclusive).

At 800mhz 4-4-4-12 they'll both be exactly the same, but the DHX version will overclock a lot further.

And there will be a heatsink on the non-DHX version too.
