hyperx UDIMM and DIMM

[jerramie]

I got this bundle. mobo, cpu and 1 stick of kingston hyperx fury ddr3. It is a 4gb stick HX318C10FR/4 is part number. I am looking to get an identical second stick so i can run dual channel. BUT when i look for the mem online, and search part number I find it and it is DIMM. my mem is 4gb DDR3 -1866 CL10 240 - pin UDIMM. I know you can not run dimm and udimm on the same board. For the life of me... I can not find any UDIMM.. I can find exact match but it is dimm. I cant figure this out. not even Kingston will answer my email on this! This memory was purchased in a bundle from tigardirect. Even they dont sell it... wt#.. lol

If same model #, it's the same thing, some sellers advertise as UDIMM (the U standing for Unbuffered), others might actually say unbuffered, others may not even mention it, but the Fury is the Fury

ok so.. even though this memory I have says UDIMM and the exact same memory that is available through tigar, new egg, etc says DIMM... its the same? I understand buffered unbuffered but these clearly say HX318C10FR/4 UDIMM and the same memory (by mod number) says HX318C10FR/4 DIMM. On the Kingston site, they do not sell 4gb UDIMM. They sell 4gb DIMM . they do sell 8gb UDIMM. I read that DIMM vs UDIMM on same board is ABSOLUTELY not compatible. Your opinion is greatly appreciated

Yes, standard DRAM as most often seen is Unbuffered, Buffered DRAM is more commonly seen in ECC memory which is aimed at Servers and high end workstations. The Fury line is entirely Unbuffered sticks
