pc3-10600u vs pc3-10600

[Felopateer]

what is the difference between pc3-10600 and pc3-10600u

 

[brispuss]

The "U" at the end of memory designation means the memory module is unbuffered.

If there is no letter at the end of memory designation, this usually means that the memory module is unbuffered anyway.

So basically, PC3-10600 = PC3-10660U.

meaning normal motherboards won't work with the unbuffered?

No.

Unbuffered memory is the "normal" or "usual" memory used on most consumer motherboards.
