    whats the differents between ecc and non parity ram?
  2. JSR Banned

    ecc

    is (error checking) ram.............for critical performance related to servers and large modules of ram..........for gaming etc. use non parity as opposed to parity(ecc) ram :grinthumb

    Unless you have a motherboard aimed at the server market (i.e. dual CPU sockets, onboard SCSI RAID, etc) then you can't use ECC. Buy non-parity as JSR instructs. Consult your motherboard's manual.

    dont buy ECC - as has been said - unless u have a server mboard then it wont support ecc - and its incredebly expensive
    and if u want my opinion buy Corsair - not Crucial
