Hello,
I'm doing a memory upgrade (to 16GB) on a HD81M-DS2V motherboard. I'm slightly confused with memory types and their terminology and need some verification, but as far as I have researched, it looks like it'll work.
So far, the computer has a single Crucial BG112TM.8w 8GB module which is PC3-12800 @ 1600MHz. UDIMM.
And... I'm looking to install a Kingstone KCP316ND8/8 8GB which is DIMM (Not UDIMM, like the Crucial module), but is PC3-12800U, so the U is elsewhere this time.
As far as I can see, I'm looking at the same kind of modules, except the U, which marks the module as Non-ECC unbuffered, is placed differently but means the exact same thing. Is this right? Will things work out?
