I was reading through some posts and I still don't understand the the BH5 thing with Ram. I have a gig of HyperX 3200 A version and I was told the NonA version is better?

BH5 refers to a "type or make of chip" your ram is "made of". Ram which uses BH5 chips can operate with very low timings/latencies. It can OC very well usually, it likes "extra" voltage (vdimm) and will run "faster" at higher voltages.

As for HyperX A or non-A, don't know about it specifically. Link the other posts you're trying to understand and someone can help.

EDIT: I see have an AMD 64 system. You're likely worrying needlessly. Generally waste of money to pay for expensive LL ram with those (very little performance diff in a 64bit system. See Zebo's benchies)
