Hi,

 

Once again posting on behalf of my brother, he would like to know if this RAM is the same, everything is identical except one of the numbers in the top right of the label...

 

Thanks,

 

Shane.

They appear to be the same. I wouldn't expect any problems with using both sticks of RAM in your computer, you should be fine.

I believe they are the same, but I've used systems that are triple channel, that work as triple channel, even when I mixed RAM brands, so this shouldn't be an issue.

Okay thanks, I guess he will just have to take the risk or just hold out until he find something exactly the same.

Are you aware that one says HMT451U6BFR8C-PB and one says HMT451U6AFR8C-PB

@rrubberr Would the thing that @Venom99 has pointed out be a problem in your mind?

My DIMMS are a mix of Samsung and Hynix, and this is obviously a much lesser difference than that is. I HIGHLY doubt that it's going to be an issue.

Okay great, thanks for clarifying! :)
