Compare Crucial 2GB MB DDR2 RAM (CT25664AA800) to Samsung Electronics Extreme Low Voltage 30nm SODIMM 8 Dual Channel Kit DDR3 1600 MB DRAM (MV3T4G3DUS)

A dual inline memory module DIMM consists of a number of memory components usually black that are attached to a printed circuit board usually green. The gold pins on the bottom of the DIMM provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a DIMM are not connected to each other. 240-pin DIMMs are used to provide DDR2 SDRAM memory for desktop computers. DDR2 is a leading-edge generation of memory with an improved architecture that allows it to transmit data very fast. Each 240-pin DIMM provides a 64-bit data path 72-bit for ECC or registered or Fully Buffered modules. The Ballistix and Ballistix Tracer high-performance memory do not come in 72-bit or registered modules. Standard DDR2 240-pin DIMMs are available in DDR2 PC2-3200 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-4200 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-5300 SDRAM, and PC2-6400 SDRAM. To use DDR2 memory, your system motherboard must have 240-pin DIMM slots and a DDR2-enabled chipset. Less

Boost performance with Samsung genuine PC memory. As the #1 memory supplier in the world, Samsung DRAM modules are made with 100% Samsung components. With the 30nm-Class DDR3 1600MHz Extreme Low Voltage SODIMM module from Samsung, you can get faster speed and greater reliability from your computer while consuming less energy. Use Samsung SODIMM DDR3 memory to replace or increase the memory in your laptop. This Samsung DDR3 memory module employs 30-nanometer technology and, as a result, uses up to 65 percent less power and is only two-thirds the size of conventional 60-nanometer memory modules. This version of Samsung DDR3 has a 8 GB capacity (2 DRAM modules, each with 4 GB). Less
