Hi fellow engineers, this may sound a bit of a teaser, but I need to upgrade my desktop computer RAM and I can't find what the difference between the manufacturer's recommended type UDIMM and the standard desktop 240 pin memory stick just called DIMM.
Obviously SODIMM has only 204 pins and is a different physical size.
I've checked manufacturers data and the DIMM and UDIMM modules have the same data sheet!!
Does anyone know if there is a difference is it important??
This is important because most DDR3 modules are just DIMM and they are cheaper than the UDIMM's
The complete spec I need is DDR3 PC3-12800 (1600) 240 pin
John.
