  • TridentX 1600CL7 or 2133CL9? same price

    Maximus Hero VI
    4770K

    F3-1600C7D-16GTX or F3-2133C9D-16GTX
    Both listed from the same seller for $109.99 CDN

    Are there any pros and cons between the two besides the marginal performance increase?

    I don't think so, just that the memory performance (bandwidth, latency) at XMP settings is better for the F3-2133C9D-16GTX and your 4770K should not have any issues running your memory at DDR3-2133 on a M6H.

      Thank you for the reply. I have ordered the 2133.

        There are two profiles in the UEFI, one says XMP-2134 and XMP-2132. In CPU-Z it shows that the 2132 profile uses 1T for the command rate, but not in the UEFI. Both show 9-11-11-31
        Little confused why there are two profile, unless there are changes made in the other timings?

        Which one would be ideal?

          The 1T for the first XMP is a well known software bug of CPU-Z, just like Aida64 usually reports 2T and 3T instead of 2T for both. You can of course try to reduce the command rate to 1T with either one and see if it is stable for you. If i remember correctly profile #2 has a little bit tighter secondary timings and should be alright for Haswell.
