Crucial Memory Questions

Hello all,

This concerns the following PC and it's Crucial PC3200 memory:

Intel D875PBZ mobo
BIOS P34
Intel 3.2 cpu 800mhz fsb w/ht
2X512 Crucial PC3200 ddr400
Seagate 120gb sata 150
Enermax 470w psu
SB Audigy2ZS
ATI Radeon 128mb 9800pro 256 bit
Plextor 708A dvd burner
CoolerMaster Praetorian case
XP Home SP2


The memory currently in this PC is 2X512 PC3200 Part # CT6464Z40B.8T2
I want to upgrade the total memory to 2gb by using 2 more sticks of 2X512.

I used the Crucial memory tool and it comes up with part # CT6464Z40B. I contacted Crucial about the extension 8T2 and they wont tell me exactly what the difference is other than it will work and that it is correct for this mobo. I don't doubt that it will work but I queston how well it will work. In the wording of the 3 emails Crucial sent me I am getting the drift that what they say about it working is not 100 percent, and that there is more to this. I'm thinking that the timing may be a little different?

In the bios it is showing the timing as being 3.0-3-3-8 for #CT6464Z40B.8T2



Can someone here help me identify exactly what the difference is between these two different part numbers.

CT6464Z40B.8T2
CT6464Z40B

Thanks.......

I can't be sure but doing a quick search it appears that both use the same 3-3-3-8 timings. However I did see something about the CT6464Z40B using 2.5v and the CT6464Z40B.8T2 uses 2.6v. I don't think you should have any problems unless you start to overclock and even then you may not have any.
