R4E memory question, im confused

[Spoony]

was looking to upgrade to 2133 from 1600, i have the follwong so far installed and working

R4E
3930K
CORSAIR 1600MHZ Vengence
and hard drives ssd's and so on.

i was browsing my local store and i was looking at these 2 sets of ram.

G.Skill Ripjaws 4x4GB Kit, DDR3-2133, CL11-11-11-30@1.6V - F3-17000CL11Q-16GBXL
Designed for 2nd Generation Intel Core Processor

and

G.Skill Ripjaws Z 4x4GB Kit, DDR3-2133, CL9-11-10-28@1.65V - F3-17000CL9Q-16GBZH
Designed for Intel X79

anybody tell what the difference is since 2nd gen will only work on X79 or am i wrong ? and also which is better my guess is the 2nd in my list but would like advice as im going for 32gb.

answerson a post card

they will both work with your mobo, but yes the 2nd is the better of the two. closer timings....but, it will also run a hair warmer....

thanks for the advice i thought i was losing the plot, even on the website it saiys what i put under the ram in the extra info bit, i mean 2nd gen IS x79 lol so i mena wtf :S

2nd one is ordered so its cool but lol i must be getting old with reading or people are trying to just confuse me :P
btw any advice on settings for the mobo anybody ?

[houndazs]

just use XMP for your memory, and verify that the timings and speed are correct. If you plan to OC then there is a great sticky in the OverClocking section of this forum for our Motherboard.

I have the 9-11-10-28 2133mhz Kit and I have run it at rock stable at 2500mhz 10-12-11-28 so I can vouch for that being a great kit.

i wish i new more about OC'ing....i can OC the CPU, and GPU's have never tried memory......

Maybe we need to have a kind of memory clinic one week on the forum. I will speak to Admin tomorrow and set it up.

Sort of open seminar about memory and how stuff works together, with each one of us using our kits of ram to overclock. Hope you would not be the only one taking part.

not a bad idea that, as you can see on my start post the info given for the products is alittle odd but means same thing, but to those who are noobies it will make them stress out about it, i just wanted clarification to the fact i wasnt loosing my mind. AGAIN :P
