difference in RAM?
Look at this and then look at this
What is the differnce? Duh, the color os the heatsink is different. The only noticable diference is that one has PT at the end ot it's name.
Anyone know what PT means?
Thanks

The Platinum heat spreader works better...normally it's more money

Yup, the only difference is the heat spreader. I have that same memory in 128mb sticks with the silver heat spreaders. It's some good stuff that overclocks well.  | |

I can't believe these prices I'm seeing!!! What happened? Prices for RAM were steadily dropping for a long time, and right when I get the money to buy some THEY SKYROCKET!
I can't find this RAM taht I used to be able to find for $85-$85 FOUR weeks ago @ at ANY price less than $112!! WHat is going on?????????? WHY ME!!!!
